How China's borderlands transformed politically and culturally throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries.

China's land borders, shared with fourteen other nations, are the world's longest. Like all borders, they are not just lines on a map but also spaces whose histories and futures are defined by their frontier status. An ambitious appraisal of China's borderlands, Shifting Sands addresses the full scope and importance of these regions, illustrating their transformation from imperial backwaters to hotbeds of resource exploitation and human development in the age of neoliberal globalization.
