Klappentext publicized and enforced that campaign are the guiding themes of this analysis. Zusammenfassung In 1908, a public crusade against opium seized China, and the provincial capital of Fuzhou was a central stage. The most successful attempt by the Chinese state before 1949 to eliminate opium came at a time when, according to many historians, China's central state was virtually powerless. Madancy attempts to reconcile that apparent contradiction.
