520    This book explores the development of late 19th century 
       study societies in China against the context of the 
       decline of the imperial Qing government and its control on
       ideological production, widespread social unrest, and 
       intrusions by Western imperialist states. The author 
       uncovers the history of civil society activism in China by
       examining the study societies in Shanghai, Beijing, and 
       Hunan, which were organized around the goal of promoting 
       and defending the Confucian religion. Illustrating a facet
       of the civil society that emerged in China as a reaction 
       to the influences of Christianity, the modernization of 
       Confucianism, and nationalist state formation, this study 
       extends understanding of the unique and complex processes 
       of Chinese political and cultural modernization in ways 
       that differed from that of Western societies.
