Speaker : Michel BONNIN
Pofessor Emeritus at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS), Paris and Adjunct Professor at the Chinese University of Hong Kong

Since imperial times, and even more so since the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, the Chinese authorities have endeavored to control the historical narrative. But an unofficial (or minjian) history has often proposed complements or corrections to the official one. This conference will present the essential role played by minjian history in our understanding of the history of contemporary China. It will also show the inevitable limits of this historical approach.
