Bio

My research interest lies mainly in the area of Chinese modern revolutionary history, literary history and 19-20 century European political philosophy, mainly in the area of nationalism, liberalism, and Marxism. I recently finished my PhD in University of Cambridge. My PhD thesis investigates the formation of party-intellectual allegiance in China, and its influence on the formation of Chinese modern Marxist individuality. My current research project intends to investigate the translation of modern international law and its impact on the political recognition of modern individual in China.
