Popular nationalism in China has been on the rise since the early 1990s to the concern of many observers. Some have even asked whether China will become another Germany. A comparative historical analysis of pre-war and wartime nationalist mobilization helps us better understand how individuals formulate their opinions under extreme conditions. It concludes that the public's weak perception of foreign threats, taken together with pro-minority domestic institutions, may significantly undermine the state?s efforts at nationalist mobilization and thus limit its capability to pursue external expansion or other strategic goals. 606 $aPolitical theory 606 $aPolitical Theory$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/911010 615 0$aPolitical theory. 615 14$aPolitical Theory. 676 $a300 676 $a320.01 700 $aZha$b Wen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01082490 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910483732203321 996 $aIndividual Choice and State-Led Nationalist Mobilization in China$92597966 997 $aUNINA
