Hardback. Examines the way divisions between Chinese rural workers and the state were recast in the 20th century as divisions between intellectuals and peasants. The author argues that this division was a central concern of the literature, resulting in a picture of a repressed peasantry, allowing them to become a focus of political and revolutionary protest.
