A window into China, Taiwan, and Tibet and Chinese diasporas, this course introduces themes and movements from the late imperial period to the present. We will explore questions of political engagement, social justice, class, gender, and human freedom and responsibility. Readings are in English translation and no background in China or Chinese is required.
