The book Discourses of Weakness in Modern China explores how the idea of China's supposed "weakness" has been constructed and perpetuated over time, from the aftermath of the Sino-Japanese War in the late 19th century to the 1930s. This narrative has had a profound impact on China's self-image and identity, shaping its political discourse both within and outside the country. The authors delve into the historical context of China's perceived "weakness examining how it has been used to justify various policies and interventions by foreign powers, as well as China's own internal struggles for power and legitimacy. They argue that understanding the evolution of this discourse is crucial for grasping China's current rise to global prominence and its implications for the rest of the world. The book begins with an analysis of the Sino-Japanese War, which marked a turning point in China's relations with the West and set the stage for its subsequent decline. The authors show how this defeat was used to justify Western imperialism and the "civilizing" mission of colonial powers, while also reinforcing China's own sense of inferiority and the need for modernization. They then trace the development of the "Sick Man of East Asia" trope, which became a powerful metaphor for China's supposed weakness and backwardness. This idea was perpetuated through literature, media, and education, solidifying China's image as a vulnerable and dependent state.
В книге «Рассуждения о слабости в современном Китае» («Discourses of Weakness in Modern China») исследуется, как идея предполагаемой «слабости» Китая была построена и увековечена с течением времени, от последствий японо-китайской войны в конце XIX века до 1930-х годов. Этот рассказ оказал глубокое влияние на самооценку и идентичность Китая, формируя его политический дискурс как внутри страны, так и за ее пределами. Авторы углубляются в исторический контекст предполагаемой «слабости» Китая, изучая, как он использовался для оправдания различных политик и вмешательств иностранных держав, а также собственной внутренней борьбы Китая за власть и легитимность. Они утверждают, что понимание эволюции этого дискурса имеет решающее значение для понимания нынешнего повышения глобальной известности Китая и его последствий для остального мира. Книга начинается с анализа японо-китайской войны, которая стала поворотным моментом в отношениях Китая с Западом и подготовила почву для его последующего упадка. Авторы показывают, как это поражение было использовано для оправдания западного империализма и «цивилизационной» миссии колониальных держав, а также для укрепления собственного чувства неполноценности Китая и необходимости модернизации. Затем они прослеживают развитие тропа «Больной человек Восточной Азии», который стал мощной метафорой предполагаемой слабости и отсталости Китая. Эта идея была увековечена через литературу, СМИ и образование, укрепляя имидж Китая как уязвимого и зависимого государства.
livre « Discours of Weakness in Modern China » (Discours sur la faiblesse en Chine moderne) examine comment l'idée d'une prétendue « faiblesse » de la Chine a été construite et perpétuée au fil du temps, des conséquences de la guerre sino-japonaise à la fin du XIXe siècle aux années 1930. Ce récit a profondément influencé l'estime de soi et l'identité de la Chine, façonnant son discours politique à l'intérieur et à l'extérieur du pays. s auteurs se penchent sur le contexte historique de la prétendue « faiblesse » de la Chine en examinant comment elle a été utilisée pour justifier les diverses politiques et interventions des puissances étrangères, ainsi que la propre lutte intérieure de la Chine pour le pouvoir et la légitimité. Ils affirment que la compréhension de l'évolution de ce discours est essentielle pour comprendre l'augmentation actuelle de la notoriété mondiale de la Chine et ses conséquences pour le reste du monde. livre commence par une analyse de la guerre sino-japonaise, qui a marqué un tournant dans les relations de la Chine avec l'Occident et a préparé le terrain pour son déclin ultérieur. s auteurs montrent comment cette défaite a été utilisée pour justifier l'impérialisme occidental et la mission « civilisationnelle » des puissances coloniales, ainsi que pour renforcer le sentiment d'infériorité de la Chine et la nécessité de la modernisation. Ils retracent ensuite le développement du sentier « L'homme malade de l'Asie de l'Est », qui est devenu une métaphore puissante de la prétendue faiblesse et du retard de la Chine. Cette idée a été perpétuée par la littérature, les médias et l'éducation, renforçant l'image de la Chine en tant qu'État vulnérable et dépendant.
libro Discursos sobre la debilidad en la China moderna (Discourses of Weakness in Modern China) explora cómo la idea de la supuesta «debilidad» de China fue construida y perpetuada a lo largo del tiempo, desde las consecuencias de la guerra entre Japón y China a finales del siglo XIX hasta la década de 1930. Este relato tuvo una profunda influencia en la autoestima y la identidad de China, dando forma a su discurso político tanto dentro como fuera del país. autores profundizan en el contexto histórico de la supuesta «debilidad» de China, estudiando cómo se ha utilizado para justificar diversas políticas e intervenciones de potencias extranjeras, así como la propia lucha interna de China por el poder y la legitimidad. Sostienen que entender la evolución de este discurso es crucial para entender el actual aumento de la fama global de China y sus implicaciones para el resto del mundo. libro comienza con un análisis de la guerra entre Japón y China, que marcó un punto de inflexión en las relaciones de China con Occidente y preparó el terreno para su posterior declive. autores muestran cómo esta derrota se utilizó para justificar el imperialismo occidental y la misión «civilizadora» de las potencias coloniales, así como para fortalecer el propio sentido de inferioridad de China y la necesidad de modernización. Luego trazan el desarrollo del sendero «hombre enfermo del este de Asia», que se ha convertido en una poderosa metáfora de la supuesta debilidad y atraso de China. Esta idea se ha perpetuado a través de la literatura, los medios de comunicación y la educación, fortaleciendo la imagen de China como un estado vulnerable y dependiente.
O livro «Discourses of Weakness in Modern China» investiga como a ideia da suposta «fraqueza» da China foi construída e perpetuada ao longo do tempo, desde os efeitos da guerra entre o Japão e a China no final do século XIX até os anos 1930. Essa história influenciou profundamente a autoestima e a identidade da China, formando seu discurso político dentro e fora do país. Os autores se aprofundam no contexto histórico da suposta «fraqueza» da China, estudando como ela foi usada para justificar várias políticas e intervenções de potências estrangeiras, e a sua própria luta interna por poder e legitimidade. Eles afirmam que compreender a evolução deste discurso é fundamental para compreender a atual valorização global da China e suas consequências para o resto do mundo. O livro começa com uma análise da guerra entre o Japão e a China, que representou um ponto de viragem nas relações da China com o Ocidente e preparou o terreno para o seu declínio posterior. Os autores mostram como esta derrota foi usada para justificar o imperialismo ocidental e a missão «civilizatória» das potências coloniais, e para fortalecer o seu próprio sentimento de desvantagem da China e a necessidade de modernização. Em seguida, seguem o caminho do Homem Doente da Ásia Oriental, que se tornou uma poderosa metáfora para a suposta fraqueza e atraso da China. Esta ideia foi perpetuada através da literatura, da mídia e da educação, fortalecendo a imagem da China como um estado vulnerável e dependente.
Das Buch Discourses of Weakness in Modern China untersucht, wie die Idee von Chinas angeblicher „Schwäche“ im Laufe der Zeit von den Folgen des japanisch-chinesischen Krieges Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts bis in die 1930er Jahre konstruiert und verewigt wurde. Diese Geschichte hatte einen tiefgreifenden Einfluss auf Chinas Selbstwertgefühl und Identität und prägte seinen politischen Diskurs sowohl innerhalb als auch außerhalb des Landes. Die Autoren vertiefen sich in den historischen Kontext der angeblichen „Schwäche“ Chinas und untersuchen, wie es verwendet wurde, um verschiedene Politiken und Interventionen ausländischer Mächte sowie Chinas eigenen internen Kampf um Macht und gitimität zu rechtfertigen. e argumentieren, dass das Verständnis der Entwicklung dieses Diskurses entscheidend ist, um den aktuellen Anstieg der globalen chtbarkeit Chinas und seine Auswirkungen auf den Rest der Welt zu verstehen. Das Buch beginnt mit einer Analyse des japanisch-chinesischen Krieges, der einen Wendepunkt in Chinas Beziehungen zum Westen darstellte und den Boden für seinen anschließenden Niedergang bereitete. Die Autoren zeigen, wie diese Niederlage genutzt wurde, um den westlichen Imperialismus und die „zivilisatorische“ Mission der Kolonialmächte zu rechtfertigen und Chinas eigenes Minderwertigkeitsgefühl und die Notwendigkeit der Modernisierung zu stärken. e zeichnen dann die Entwicklung des Ostasiatischen Kranken-Menschen-Pfades nach, der zu einer kraftvollen Metapher für Chinas vermeintliche Schwäche und Rückständigkeit geworden ist. Diese Idee wurde durch Literatur, Medien und Bildung verewigt und festigte Chinas Image als verletzlicher und abhängiger Staat.

Modern Çin'de Zayıflık Söylemleri, Çin'in sözde "zayıflığı" fikrinin, 19. yüzyılın sonlarındaki Çin-Japon Savaşı'nın etkilerinden 1930'lara kadar, zaman içinde nasıl inşa edildiğini ve sürdürüldüğünü inceler. Bu anlatı, Çin'in benlik saygısı ve kimliği üzerinde derin bir etkiye sahipti ve siyasi söylemini hem yurt içinde hem de yurt dışında şekillendirdi. Yazarlar, Çin'in algılanan "zayıflığı'nın tarihsel bağlamına, dış güçlerin çeşitli politika ve müdahalelerinin yanı sıra Çin'in kendi iç iktidar ve meşruiyet mücadelesini haklı çıkarmak için nasıl kullanıldığını inceliyorlar. Bu söylemin evrimini anlamanın, Çin'in mevcut yükselişini ve dünyanın geri kalanı için etkilerini anlamak için kritik olduğunu savunuyorlar. Kitap, Çin'in Batı ile ilişkilerinde bir dönüm noktası olan ve daha sonraki çöküşüne zemin hazırlayan Çin-Japon Savaşı'nın bir analiziyle başlıyor. Yazarlar, bu yenilginin Batı emperyalizmini ve sömürgeci güçlerin "uygarlık" misyonunu meşrulaştırmak ve Çin'in kendi aşağılık duygusunu ve modernleşme ihtiyacını pekiştirmek için nasıl kullanıldığını gösteriyor. Daha sonra, Çin'in algılanan zayıflığı ve geri kalmışlığı için güçlü bir metafor haline gelen Doğu Asya'nın Hasta Adamı'nın gelişimini izliyorlar. Bu fikir edebiyat, medya ve eğitim yoluyla sürdürüldü ve Çin'in savunmasız ve bağımlı bir devlet olarak imajını güçlendirdi.
