Contemporary Chinese Studies. Vancouver: UBC Press, 2011, c2010. x. 285 pp. (Tables, maps, B&W photos, illus. During almost a decade, from 1921-1929, the Chinese government administered Russians, Chinese, Manchus and other foreigners living in the former Tsarist Russian concession in northern Manchuria under the name Special District of the Three Eastern Provinces. However, the 1929 Sino-Soviet conflict over the Chinese Eastern Railway (CER) undermined this administrative experiment, and Japan’s 1931 invasion of Manchuria, followed by the 1932 creation of the puppet state of Manchukuo, quickly destroyed any remaining vestiges of this innovative system.

Administering the Colonizer explores how a non-Western culture dealt with the Western minority under its administration. Blaine R. Chiasson is an associate professor of modern Chinese history and Sino-Russian relations at Wilfrid Laurier University. It reveals that contrary to observations and ideological and national histories emanating from Moscow and present-day Beijing, republican China created policies in a number of areas that not only promoted its own sovereignty but also protected the Russian minority.

By Blaine R. Chiasson. SERIES: Contemporary Chinese Studies. Administering the Colonizer is fine scholarship

By Blaine R. In the 1920s, Western observers viewed Harbin, in North Manchuria,as a world turned upside down. Administering the Colonizer is fine scholarship. Chiasson, more than any previous author, details the administrative structures and policies by which the unique city of Harbin was governed during the transition from Russian to Chinese rule. His book makes an outstanding original contribution on a subject that is important in its own right, but even more so as instances of mixed administration (both historical and current) are popular and relevant cases to study. Vancouver: University of British Columbia Press, 2010. Recommend this journal.

Victor Zatsepine's history of the formation and environmental condition of the Amur River region, a frontier or meeting place between China and Russia, is essential reading for anyone who wants a better understanding of Sino-Russian relations. ―Blaine Chiasson, author of Administering the Colonizer: Manchuria's Russians under Chinese Rule, 1919–29.

Harbin of the 1920s was viewed by Westerners as a world turned upside down. The Chinese government had taken over administration of the Russian-founded Chinese Eastern Railway concession, and its large Russian population. This account of the decade-long multi-ethnic and multinational administrative experiment in North Manchuria reveals that China not only created policies to promote Chinese sovereignty but also instituted measures to protect the Russian minority. This multi-faceted book is a historical examination of how an ethnic, cultural, and racial majority coexisted with a minority of a different culture and race. It restores to history the multiple national influences that have shaped northern China and Chinese nationalism. .
