A comprehensive study of popular culture in twentieth-century China, and of its political impact during the Sino-Japanese War of 1937-1945 (known in China as 'The War of Resistance against Japan'). It shows how Chinese resisters used a variety of popular cultural forms to reach out to the rural audience and galvanize support for the war cause.
