<p>Located in Manchuria (Northeast China), the geopolitical borderland&nbsp;between China, Russia, and Japan, among others, Anshan Iron and&nbsp;Steel Works (Angang) was Mao-era China's most important industrial enterprise. The history of Angang from 1915 to 2000 reveals the hybrid&nbsp;nature of China's accelerated industrialization, shaped by transnational&nbsp;interactions, domestic factors, and local dynamics. Utilizing archives in&nbsp;Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and English, Koji Hirata provides the first&nbsp;comprehensive history of this enterprise before, during, and after the&nbsp;Mao era (1949-1976). Through this unique lens, he explores the complex&nbsp;interplay of transnational influences in Mao-era China.&nbsp;By illustrating the symbiotic relationship between socialism and capitalism&nbsp;during the twentieth century, this major new study situates China&nbsp;within the complex global history of late industrialization.</p>
