Accommodating the Chinese: The American Hospital in China, 1880-1920 - East Asia: History, Politics, Sociology and Culture
Renshaw, Michelle Campbell (Visiting Research Fellow, Dept. of Public Health, University of Adelaide, Australia)
This in-depth comparative study demonstrates that the hospital established in China - its planning and architecture, financing, and all aspects of day-to-day operation - differed from its counterpart at home. These differences were never due to a single, or even dominant cause. They were a result of a complex process involving accommodation, appreciation, negotiation, opportunism and pragmatism.
