Description:

Chinese martial arts is considered by many to symbolise the strength of the Chinese and their pride in their history, and has long been regarded as an important element of Chinese culture and national identity. Politics and Identity in Chinese Martial Arts comprehensively examines the development of Chinese martial arts in the context of history and politics, and highlights its role in nation building and identity construction over the past two centuries.

This book explores how the development of Chinese martial arts was influenced by the ruling regimes’ political and military policies, as well as the social and economic environment. It also discusses the transformation of Chinese martial arts into its modern form as a competitive sport, a sport for all and a performing art, considering the effect of the rapid transformation of Chinese society in the 20th century and the influence of Western sports. The text concludes by examining the current prominence of Chinese martial arts on a global scale and the bright future of the sport as a unique cultural icon and national symbol of China in an era of globalisation.

Politics and Identity in Chinese Martial Arts is important reading for researchers, students and scholars working in the areas of Chinese studies, Chinese history, political science and sports studies. It is also a valuable read for anyone with a special interest in Chinese martial arts.

Amazing!
Color: Mermaid
I bought this for my musical Seussical and for everyday use. I was very impressed by the quality it was so easy to put on and it washed right off. This is the perfect glitter! I tested it on my arm face and hair it and my 2 only problems are that the color is not what it looks in the picture I got the mermaid color thinking it would have more pink but it does not have much pink in it when you put it on it appears more blue and green. The other thing is for those who got this for their hair be ware the glitter will fall off I didn’t get to give it a great chance on my hair but I think it’s not terrible you just need to give it more time to dry than I did or whenever you move you’re head glitter will come off. Overall I think this is an amazing product and I am definitely considering trying other colors.

Pretty and easy to use/wash off
Color: Sparkling Pink
Pretttyyy! It washes off easily when you want it to, so there’s no worries with it feeling “permanent.” It does rub off too but with excessive rubbing. It’s a pretty color that’s holographic-like. We love it for sparkly cheeks!

Great Body Glitter
Color: Sparkling Pink
The main colors of this holo glitter are purple, blue, and silver. It worked perfectly for my outfit, and I honestly had no complaints. When it comes to glitter, there’s nothing you can do to prevent it from getting everywhere, so I don’t hold that against the product at all. It sheds like normal but this literally stayed on after I wore it all day/night at a concert while sweating in 90-100°F heat the whole time; it lasts great. It also washed off super easy with some warm water and soap, which was such a relief. The gel/liquid itself is incredibly easy to apply, as it is pretty thin and dries quickly (maybe 3-5 minutes for total dryness I think?). You have to shake the bottle a bit to get the glitter spread out, but it rolls on easily. It sparkles great as well.

Cheap body glitter if that is what you are looking for
Color: Laser Green
The container broke so be careful!!! Also, the glitter doesn’t really roll on that well and kept getting clumped into the sides of the roller. If you are looking for cheap body glitter this is it!! Otherwise, it lasts all day and washes off easily
