2 Loy-Wilson, Sophie
Australians in Shanghai : race, rights and nation in
treaty port China / Sophie Loy-Wilson.-- London:
Routledge, 2017.
xvi, 141p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9781138797628.
305.824051132 LOY 145523
In the first half of the twentieth century, a diverse
community of Australians settled in Shanghai. There they
forged a ‘China trade’. After the First World War,
Australians turned to Chinese treaty ports, fleeing
poverty and unemployment, while others sought to ‘save’
China through missionary work and socialist ideas.
Chinese Australians, disillusioned by Australian racism
under the White Australia Policy, arrived to participate
in Chinese nation building and ended up forging business
empires which survive to this day. This book follows the
life trajectories of these Australians, providing a means
by which we can address one of the pervading tensions of
race, empire and nation in the twentieth century: the
relationship between working-class aspirations for social
mobility and the exclusionary and discriminatory
practices of white settler societies.

4 Cohn, Steven Mark
Competing economic paradigms in China : the co-evolution
of economic events, economic theory and economics
education, 1976-2016 / Steven Mark Cohn.-- London:
Routledge, 2017.
xviii, 357p. , 25cm.
(Routledge contemporary China series , 171).
ISBN : 9781138678156.
330.95105 COH 145519
This book explains how and why neoclassical economic
theory replaced Marxist economic theory as the dominant
economics paradigm in China. It rejects the idea that the
rise of neoclassical theory was a triumph of reason over
ideology, and instead, using a sociology of knowledge
approach, links the rise of neoclassical economics to
broad ideological currents and to the political-economic
projects that key social groups inside and outside China
wanted to enable. The book concludes with a discussion of
the nature of economic theory and economics education in
China today.

workers, the self-employed, women, and rural workers.
These chapters draw attention to the contradictions
within the current policy regime and the need for new
approaches.

(Routledge contemporary China series , 138).
ISBN : 9780415707343.

This book examines the evolution of China’s contemporary
foreign policy and international relations. In doing so,
it underlines the global importance of China’s management
of its own politics and economics, and demonstrates how
all nation-states have a vested interest in - and to
varying degrees are liable for-the consequences of
Chinese actions. The book aims to spark debate by drawing
attention to these critical issues, placing them on the
scholarly agenda as well as that of the practitioner. It
provides factual evidence, progressive findings,
justification and a rationale for action, expert
analysis, and the resulting policy prescriptions. The
book also highlights the liable costs of failing to
address China’s strategic priorities.
