About Reinventing China

China's history of the last 200 years seems like a boomerang, returning to the West what it once unleashed. The series reveals how devastating the struggles for identity and power have been for the population since the fall of the "Middle Kingdom," and how closely these tragedies are intertwined with our own. Great hopes were placed in a wide variety of visions for the future—and each time, bitter disappointment ensued. From the decline of the empire to its resurgence as a superpower, China's history is both a dream and a nightmare, in which human life is of little value.

Reinventing China runs for 1 season, created by Karim Miské and Ilana Navaro. Every episode page keeps the show's order, so you can watch from the pilot to the finale without hunting for the next link. Episodes are bought individually for 1 credit.

The Fall of a Dynasty (1839–1907)

From Canton and Macau, its only two international ports, cargoes of tea, porcelain, and silk, prized by Westerners, were exported. The Manchu Qing dynasty, in power for two centuries, ruled unchallenged over 400 million subjects belonging to the Han ethnic group.

Zerrissenes Land (1907 - 1965)

One China? With the end of the monarchy, the cards were reshuffled. However, the 1911 revolution turned into a nightmare. Instead of Sun Yat-sen's vision of democracy and progress, China descended into chaos and became a laboratory for a wide variety of utopias. Chiang Kai-shek's conservative nationalism cracked down hard on the revolutionaries...

Made in China (1966–2021)

Mao's Cultural Revolution was intended to secure his power and claimed millions of victims. In the West, the "Great Helmsman" is romanticized by many on the left. But instead of socialist ideals, it is ultimately China's economy and its opening to the West that allow the country to rise to superpower status once again. The result is increasing prosperity and turbo-capitalism.
