First, they discuss the generational aspect of this nationalism. They then consider the social mechanisms that produced the momentum for the series of global outbursts of Chinese nationalism, the meaning of the events for the participants, and the role of the emerging public “heroes” and “traitors.” Third, the writers examine the technological platform that enabled the events to unfold on the global stage. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
