The Intoxication of Manchuria: Alcohol, Opium, and Culture in Northeast China
29.99 €
"The Stupefaction of Manchuria" shows how the large-scale production of alcohol and opium in northeastern China survived in the face of militaristic fragmentation, Japanese invasion, political conflict, and a developed anti-drug movement. Norman Smith analyzes images of alcohol and opium in Chinese media to explain how society perceived intoxicating substances and addiction to them, and what measures were taken to reduce their use, a topic not previously addressed in the scholarly literature.
