The past and present of China, covering several millennia, naturally cannot be squeezed into a single paper, even if it consists of several parts to be published in a sequence. Part I ventures only to offer a brief survey of the complex history of China, covering millennia, up to the establishment of the unified republic. China could be hardly understood without the most important elements of the history of its ideas, the great past and present of its basic political philosophy shaping its statehood, to be summarised by the present writing, before Part II would describe the process of the integration of two of its major areas of a homogenous ethnic minority. Finally, Parts III, IV, and V would offer an analysis of the political, ideological, and economic processes determining China today, and would discuss how the huge country is joining the current processes of world politics. Parts I and II only offer a background to the analysis given in Parts III, IV, and V and aim at summarising the most important findings of an extensive literature presently regarded as standard.
