Focusing upon Shanghai, this study explores the astonishing growth of Western-style industry, commerce and banking during the Republic's first decade. Marie-Claire Bergere analyses how the bourgeoisie gradually constituted itself as a specific and coherent social class, with its own ideology and type of political action, built upon family solidarities and regional links; and she examines the relations between this class and the State, the Revolution and the West.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51938928001312,"sku":"NEW0521110718","price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-golden-age-of-the-chinese-bourgeoisie-1911-1937-studies-in-modern-capitalism-0521110718","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
