- Johansson (East-West studies, Hong Kong Baptist U.) examines the development of the discipline of sinology in Sweden during the 20th century, a small academic community that included some of the leading scholars of their time. He discusses what sinology was, archaeology and the western origin of China, The Swedish Chinese Expedition, empire and ethnography, The Karlbeck Syndicate, the Peking Man discovery, Osvald Sirén's spiritual Far East, Swedish Maoism, report from a Chinese village, and anti-imperialism.
