China and Orientalism

"China and Orientalism" by Daniel F. Vukovich, published by Taylor & Francis Ltd in 2011, delves into the evolving dynamics of Orientalism in contemporary society. This thought-provoking hardback, spanning 190 pages, presents a compelling argument that a new Sinological form of Orientalism is emerging. Vukovich explores the shift from a paradigm of 'essential difference' to one of 'sameness' or general equivalence, illustrating how "China" is gradually aligning itself with the USA and the Western world. This insightful examination is essential for anyone interested in the intricate relations between civilizations, politics, and cultural identity. Discover how these transformations are reshaping our understanding of East-West interactions in this timely and relevant work.
