"Mr. Dirlik examines the application of the materialist conception of history to the analysis of Chinese history in a period when Marxist ideas first gained currency in Chinese intellectual circles. He outlines the historical analyses of major Marxist historians of the period in detail, relates them to currents in contemporary politics, thought, and historiography, and evaluates Chinese Marxist historiography from the perspective of the theoretical problems imbedded in the materialist conception of history."
