Sun Yatsen (18661925), The First President Of The Republic Of China, Has Left A Supremely Ambivalent Political And Intellectual Legacyso Much So That He Is Claimed As A Founding Father By Both The Present Rival Governments In Taipei And Beijing. In Taiwan, He Is The Object Of A Veritable Cult; In The Peoples Republic Of China, He Is Paid Homage As Pioneer Of The Revolution, Making Possible The Partys Claims Of Continuity With The National Past. Western Scholars, On The Other Hand, Have Tended To Question The Myth Of Sun Yatsen By Stressing The Mans Weaknesses, The Thinkers Incoherences, And The Revolutionary Leaders Many Failures.This Book Argues That The Life And Work Of Sun Yatsen Have Been Distorted Both By The Creation Of The Myth And By The Attempts At Demythification. Its Aim Is To Provide A Fresh Overall Evaluation Of The Man And The Events That Turned An Adventurer Into The Founder Of The Chinese Republic And The Leader Of A Great Nationalist Movement. The Sun Yatsen Who Emerges From This Rigorously Researched Account Is A Muddled Politician, An Opportunist With Generous But Confused Ideas, A Theorist Without Great Originality Or Intellectual Rigor.But The Author Demonstrates That The Importance Of Sun Yatsen Lies Elsewhere. A Cantonese Raised In Hawaii And Hong Kong, He Was A Product Of Maritime China, The China Of The Coastal Provinces And Overseas Communities, Open To Foreign Influences And Acutely Aware Of The Modern Western World (He Was Fundraising In Denver When The Eleventh Attempt To Bring Down The Chinese Empire Finally Succeeded). In Facing The Problems Of Change, Of Imitating The West, Of Rejecting Or Adapting Tradition, He Instinctively Grasped The Aspirations Of His Time, Understood Their Force, And Crystallized Them Into Practical Programs.Sun Yatsens Gifts Enabled Him To Foresee The Danger That Technology Might Represent To Democracy, Stressed The Role Of Infrastructures (Transport, Energy) In Economic Modernization, And Looked Forward To A New Style Of Diplomatic And International Economic Relations Based Upon Cooperation That Bypassed Or Absorbed Old Hostilities. These Utopias Of His, At Which His Contemporaries Heartily Jeered, Now Seem To Be So Many Prophecies.
