- English abstract
- This article in Chinese surveys research into Qing history and the development of Chinese studies in the United Kingdom. Dividing the history of the Qing into three time periods, the article presents the trajectory of British Qing research historically: the missionary-scholars of the 19th century, through the impact of the Cold War and the rise of the area studies approach and finally the professionalization of the field in recent decades and the rise of the New Qing. I argue that the historiography of the Qing in the UK has always been intimately connected to global trends in scholarship and geopolitics.
