Recenzii

'Modern Erasures unveils the untold story of China in pursuit of modernity. Through the juxtaposition of civic values and nation building, and hegemonic violence and communal legacy, it offers a sobering view of revolutionary history and its disavowal. Meticulously researched and beautifully written, this is a great book.' David Der-wei Wang, Harvard University
'Through an investigation of disaster, memory, and epistemic violence, Modern Erasures shows how certain understandings of the Chinese past fostered and justified revolutionary violence. Fuller claims, provocatively and compellingly, that the violence of the Mao era was extraordinary but that it was also consistent with the broader logics of the May Fourth discourses that shaped China's 20th century.' Aminda Smith, Michigan State University
