Peeling back layers of Cold War ideological constructs, Yang tells a very different story from the conventional historiography of the Chinese civil war that has focused on debating the reasons for Communist success and Nationalist failure. Yang lays bare the traumatic aftermath of the Chinese Communist Revolution for the hundreds of thousands of ordinary people who were forcibly displaced from their homes across the sea. Underscoring the displaced population's trauma of living in exile and their poignant "homecomings" four decades later, he presents a multievent trajectory of repeated traumatization and the recurring search for home, belonging, and identity. This thought-provoking study challenges the established notions of trauma, memory, diaspora, and reconciliation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Zhongguo guo min dang $v Biography. 610 27 $a Zhongguo guo min dang. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00518796 651 0 $a China $x Veterans. $y Civil War, 1945-1949 $x Veterans. 651 0 $a China $x Refugees. $y Civil War, 1945-1949 $x Refugees. 651 0 $a China $x History $y Civil War, 1945-1949 $v Personal narratives. 650 0 $a Soldiers $z Taiwan $v Biography. 650 0 $a Veterans $z Taiwan $v Biography. 650 0 $a Refugees $z Taiwan $v Biography. 650 0 $a Homeless persons $z Taiwan $v Biography. 651 0 $a China $x History $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a Taiwan $x History $x History $y 20th century. 650 7 $a Emigration and immigration. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00908690 650 7 $a Homeless persons. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00959445 650 7 $a Refugees. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01092797 650 7 $a Soldiers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01125233 650 7 $a Veterans. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01165710 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a Taiwan. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207854 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 776 08 $i Online version: $a Meng-Hsuan Yang, Dominic, 1976- $t Great exodus from China. $d Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY : Cambridge University Press, 2020 $z 9781108784306 $w (DLC) 2020013544 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317021224.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=0EB1E01C71B711EB8A4F4B2E3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
