Download pdf | Full Screen View

Date Issued:
1977
Summary:
The study begins with a survey of the China policies of the Soviet Government and the Comintern from 1917 to 1922. The revolutionary background of Mikhail Borodin and Sun Yat-sen is then covered, followed by a description of Canton in 1923 and an account of the events surrounding Borodin's assignment to Canton. The study then concentrates on Borodin's first four months in Canton. Particular emphasis is placed on his role in the preparations for the Kuomintang's 1st National Congress, held in January 1924. The remaining period up to Sun's death in March 1925 is covered in less detail due to the relative scarcity of documentation. A summary of Borodin's activities until his ouster from China in July 1927 is also included. The study concludes that Borodin was remarkably successful in influencing Chinese affairs given the enormous handicaps under which he labored.
