"This is a fascinating and unique book, offering deep insight into
Chinese culture, history, religion, philosophy, nationalism,
politics, and foreign relations." — CHOICE
"This book is suggesting an original theoretical framework that
deconstructs (not just theoretically but empirically) Chineseness
that is often reified in the binary image of China versus the
other. It shows the fluidity and multiplicity of Chineseness not
only in cultural and discursive realms but in policies and real
politics." — Jungmin Seo, Yonsei University
