The Rise and Fall of Imperial China
China was once the world’s leading superpower for almost two millennia, falling behind only in the last two centuries and now rising to dominance again. What factors led to imperial China’s decline? Yuhua Wang will discuss his new book “The Rise and Fall of Imperial China”, which offers a systematic look at the Chinese state from the seventh century through to the twentieth.
Speakers:
Yuhua Wang, Frederick S. Danziger Associate Professor of Government, Harvard University
