Asian Borderlands: The Transformation of Qing China's Yunnan Frontier C. Patterson Giersch
Asian Borderlands: The Transformation of Qing China's Yunnan Frontier
C. Patterson Giersch
With comparative frontier history and pioneering use of indigenous sources, Giersch provides a groundbreaking challenge to the China-centered narrative of the Qing conquest. He focuses on the Tai domains of the Yunnan frontier on the politically fluid borderlands, where local, indigenous leaders were crucial actors in an arena of imperial rivalry.
