Schneider, Isinor | September 10, 1930 issue

add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "The Chinese Revolution," by Arthur N. Holcombe. According to the author, from his historical perspectives Holcombe is able to correct distorted views of foreign onlookers, who proceed from the present disorder to a retrospective condemnation of the whole of Chinese civilization. Holcombe decisively disposes of their theory that the Chinese are inherently without political capacity. He reminds readers that the Chinese had political capacity enough to maintain a greater empire longer and more firmly than Rome, which is presumed to be the political genius among people.
