Indigo Administering the Colonizer: Manchuria's Russians under Chinese Rule, 1918-29 | Erin Mills Town Centre
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Indigo
In the 1920s, Westerners viewed Harbin, in North Manchuria, as a
world turned upside down. Located in a former Chinese Eastern Railway
concession with a significant Russian population, the city and the
Special District in which it resided were represented as places that
had reversed the “natural” racial hierarchy – a place
where white was the ruled and not the ruler.
Administering the Colonizer explores how a non-Western
culture dealt with the Western minority under its administration. It
reveals that contrary to observations and ideological and national
histories emanating from Moscow and present-day Beijing, republican
China created policies in a number of areas that not only promoted its
own sovereignty but also protected the Russian minority.
A historical examination of how an ethnic, cultural, and racial
majority coexisted with a minority of a different culture and race, his
book also restores to history the multiple national influences that
have shaped northern China and Chinese nationalism.
