Omschrijving

In the turbulent years of China's War of Resistance against Japan (1931-1945), a unique and complex narrative unfolded far from the battlefields - in Australia. Patriots and Propaganda: Chinese Australians and the politics of loyalty, 1930s-1940s delves into the intricate web of Chinese wartime propaganda efforts, revealing how the Chinese Kuomintang (KMT) and Chinese Australian communities mobilised support for China's struggle against Japanese aggression.

Patriots and Propaganda uncovers the multifaceted relationships between China, Australia, and the Australian Chinese diaspora, highlighting the political, racial and class dynamics that shaped these interactions.

Bolin Hu explores the pivotal role of Chinese-language newspapers and schools in preserving Chinese heritage and loyalty; the intense political rivalries within the Australian Chinese community; and the profound impact of memorial services and fundraising campaigns on fostering Chinese patriotism and community cohesion. Hu also brings to light the diverse contributions of various Chinese Australian groups - including leftists, women, and Australian-born Chinese - to China's war effort, and the fierce propaganda battles between Chinese and Japanese authorities on Australian soil.

Patriots and Propaganda offers a nuanced exploration of the socio-political dynamics within the Australian Chinese community, while challenging the traditional narrative of distant allies, presenting new evidence and perspectives on the Sino-Australian relationship during a critical period in history.
