This lecture explores the pivotal role of suppression in shaping the course of mid-19th-century rebellions in China. It emphasizes the significance of the suppression efforts, which ultimately dismantled the Chinese state and ushered in a new era of regional power dynamics. The lecture highlights the military superiority of the Taipings and the subsequent need for innovative tactics to counter their threat. It delves into the emergence of influential figures like Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang, who wielded both military and civil authority in their respective regions, leading to the creation of de facto states within the empire. Additionally, the lecture examines Western involvement in the conflict and its evolving stance towards the Taipings and the Qing Dynasty.

One of the best sinologists of modern times, Guy Alitto is an American academic in the History and East Asian Languages and Civilization Departments at the University of Chicago. He is known in China for revitalizing the scholarship on Chinese Confucian scholar Liang Shuming. He is best known in America for his scholarship and for his role as translator for the first official Chinese delegations to the United States after Richard Nixon’s first visits to China.
