The Cultural Revolution in China

Trescher-Reiseführer

- - - Alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten auf 596 Seiten - 60 Stadtpläne und Übersichtskarten - Mehr als 400 Farbfotos - Fundierte Hintergrundinformationen zu Geographie, Geschichte und Kultur - Aktuelle Reisetipps - - -

China ist eines der größten und ältesten Länder der Erde, das seinen Weg zwischen Tradition und Moderne sucht. Eine China-Reise gleicht immer noch einem Aufbruch in unbekannte Welten, und jede China-Erfahrung ist einzigartig. Dieser Reiseführer bietet eine ebenso kurzweilige wie fundierte Einführung in Geschichte, Kultur und Lebensweise des vielfältigen Landes. Er beschreibt ausführlich Touristenziele wie Beijing, Shanghai, den Yangzi, die alte Kaiserstadt Xian und den Süden, aber auch weniger bekannte Sehenswürdigkeiten. Neben ausführlichen Informationen über Land und Leute gibt es zahlreiche praktische Hinweise und Tipps sowohl für Individualtouristen als auch für Teilnehmer von organisierten Reisen. Die beiden Autoren sind studierte Sinologen und ausgewiesene Kenner des Landes, die jahrelange Erfahrung als Reiseveranstalter und Reiseleiter haben.

China ist eines der größten und ältesten Länder der Erde. Von der Seidenstraße zur Mandschurei, von Sichuan bis Honkong begeistert es mit einzigartigen Landschaften und unzähligen Sehenswürdigkeiten. Das CHINA HANDBUCH aus dem Trescher Verlag nimmt mit auf eine ebenso spannende wie informative Reise durch die Volksrepublik.
China sucht selbstbewusst seinen Weg zwischen Tradition und Moderne. In Jahrtausenden eigenständiger Entwicklung hat es eine faszinierende Kultur hervorgebracht, die sich stark auf uralte Traditionen stützt. Zugleich macht das Land eine rasante wirtschaftliche und gesellschaftliche Entwicklung durch. Eine China-Reise gleicht deshalb ‒ trotz der guten touristischen Infrastruktur ‒ immer noch einem Aufbruch in unbekannte Welten. 

Die versierten Sinologen und Reiseleiter Françoise Hauser und Volker Häring beschreiben im CHINA HANDBUCH alle wichtigen Sehenswürdigkeiten im Reich der Mitte. Dabei stellen sie nicht nur touristische Klassiker ausführlich vor: die Große Mauer und Beijing mit der Verbotenen Stadt, die Terrakotta-Armee und das Shaolin-Kloster, die alte Kaiserstadt Xian und das von Wolkenkratzern geprägte Shanghai, den Yangzi-Fluss mit den berühmten Drei Schluchten oder die Sonderverwaltungszone Hongkong. Sie führen auch in von Europäern noch wenig besuchte Regionen entlang der Seidenstraße, im Landesinneren und an den Küsten: darunter in die Oasenstadt Turfan am Beginn der Taklamakan-Wüste, in die paradiesische Bergwelt der Provinz Yunnan oder auf die Insel Hainan, wo weiße Palmenstrände auf Urlauber warten. 
Neben einer ebenso kompetenten wie kurzweiligen Einführung in Geschichte, Küche und Kultur bietet das CHINA HANDBUCH aus dem Trescher Verlag viel fundiertes Hintergrundwissen zu Geografie, Gesellschaft und Politik, zu Religionen und Volksglauben des vielfältigen, multiethnisches Landes. Es hält ausführliche praktische Hinweise und eine Fülle an Reisetipps sowohl für Individualtouristen als auch für Teilnehmende von organisierten Reisen parat. Zahlreiche Stadtpläne und Übersichtskarten sowie ein Sprachführer helfen bei der Orientierung und ergänzen das Buch zum allseits verlässlichen Begleiter auf Erkundungen im Reich der Mitte.
… weitere Reiseführer zum Fernen Osten finden Sie auf der Website des Trescher Verlags.

Toward a New Sociology of Religion

Religious Change in Post-Mao China

Routledge Advances in Democratic Theory

Art’s obsession with politics is a problem, even a paradox. The more art there is, the less it shares with the political. Even the radical character of contemporary artistic practices revolves around the idea that there are no alternatives to liberal democracy and capitalist pluralism without risking another dystopia – a paradigm that, in the artistic realm, is articulated as the opposition between modernism and postmodernism. Indeed, with three recent transformations of our understanding; of emancipatory politics; the nature of aesthetics; and the post-Fordist transformation of capitalism, many argue that we overcome the fundamental challenges of aesthetic and political modernities and encounter ‘things’ beyond power relations and beyond aesthetics. However, even at its most creative, art has more in common with hegemony than capitalism. At every hegemonic turn, artwork is directed against itself, only to reinstate another art form in order to continue. This book looks at the problem of hegemony from an aesthetical perspective and argues that there is a ‘hegemonic trap’ pointing us in the direction of the alteration rather than alternative. Julia Svetlichnaja asks: Can art become hegemony? What is proposed is not Paolo Virno's ‘exit', it is the ‘exit’ from thinking about the ‘world-making’ in terms of alternative. What if instead of searching for alternatives we perform an alteration and pluralise modernism? The aesthetic project of the alteration of hegemony through the pluralisation of modernism does not represent hope for a better, different, political order but a space for problematisation, overlapping and contaminations of a number of social orders. The idea is to think about the world not in terms of ‘alternatives,’ but in terms of their absence.

Towards Plural Hegemony

The Art of Democracy

This collection brings together Rabindranath Tagore's writings on forms of difference based on gender, caste, class, nation, community, religion, language, art, literature, philosophy, social custom and political belief. Via new translations, along with Tagore's own writings, this illustrated anthology presents his complex, dynamic approach to commonly perceived dualities -- such as life/death, nature/culture, male/female, tradition/modernity, East/West, local/universal, urban/rural etc. -- to highlight his humanistic vision and its significance for us today.Please note: Taylor &amp; Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka

Demonstrating a wide array of influences-from Chinese calligraphy to Expressionism-Liu Wei's work deals with universal themes of humanity. With a career spanning over thirty years, he has proved a master of rendering human flesh and combining figuration with text and abstraction. Liu Wei's deft grasp of technique and acute awareness of color and composition is evident in his lush landscapes, in which flora and fauna often escape the confines of the canvas and spill out onto the Rococo-style frames. Featuring texts by distinguished specialists in contemporary Chinese art, this first major English-language monograph provides an in-depth look at the historical context and traces his development from his early paintings reflecting disenchantment with political and artistic utopias through the lenses of skepticism and satire, to lush landscapes, striking portraits, and more recent philosophic and contemplative calligraphic works on paper. LIU WEI (*1965, Beijing), studied printmaking at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, where he still lives today. He first rose to prominence as a preeminent figure in China's "cynical realism" movement of the 1990s. His paintings have been shown in museum exhibitions and biennials worldwide, including the Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney, the Singapore Art Museum, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Venice Biennale.

For fans of Ben Macintyre, the gripping story of the assassination of Soviet revolutionary Leon Trotsky and the deadly game of cat and mouse that preceded it On August 20, 1940, Leon Trotsky invited a man he knew only as Jacques Mornard into his study. Mornard waited for Trotsky to sit, then smashed an ice pick he had hidden in his raincoat into his skull. &nbsp; For over a decade, Trotsky’s greatest enemy, Joseph Stalin, had been trying to arrange his murder. His agents had hunted him across Europe and into a lonely, bitter exile in Mexico. He had liquidated Trotsky’s family and friends, and yet Trotsky had always escaped his clutches. The man who changed this all was Ramón Mercader, a minor Spanish aristocrat and Soviet agent who had posed as Mornard, a dissolute Belgian playboy, and infiltrated Trotsky’s inner circle.&nbsp; In The Death of Trotsky, Josh Ireland traces the separate paths walked by each of these protagonists as they steadily draw closer and closer to that fateful encounter on August 20. Blending intimate historical detail and thrilling historical narrative, swinging from Moscow to Paris to Mexico, and taking in a cast of morally conflicted Russian spies, fanatical Mexican painters, and innocent American idealists, The Death of Trotsky delves into the lives of two fascinating, complex men locked in a life-or-death struggle that will bend the course of history.

With President Biden recently describing the Chinese premier Xi Jinping as ¿a dictator,¿ the shooting down of Chinese balloons in US airspace, the increasing of US military aid to Taiwan, and the banning of US exports of microchips to China, the American drumbeat for a new cold war with the world¿s second largest economy is getting ever louder.
This new found aggression towards China is profoundly mistaken, in the view of authors Jodie Evans and Mikaela Nhondo Erskog. Their crisply focused and richly informative new book, based on years of first-hand experience and extensive research, lays out an accessible history of China, examines its culture and current economic strategy, and in particular focuses on the outlook of the younger generation. It concludes that&nbsp; a strategy of peaceful co-existence will be far more beneficial for working people in both countries, especially for the many Chinese Americans resident in the US, and vital in reducing the risk of a cataclysmic military confrontation between two nuclear powers.&nbsp;&nbsp;
