The Oil Prince's Legacy traces Rockefeller philanthropy in China from the nineteenth century to today. That importance is still seen today in the ties of the two countries in natural and social sciences, the humanities, economics, and higher education. Family diaries, letters, interviews in China, and institutional archival records are used to tell a compelling story about successive Rockefeller generations and U.S.-China cultural relations.This book describes how Rockefeller philanthropy came to focus on elite science and medicine and ensured their ongoing importance in the American-Chinese relationship.
Understanding the origin, evolution, Cold War interregnum, and post-Mao renewal The Rockefeller family's involvement with China continues in the fourth and fifth generations, even as Rockefeller philanthropy is reshaped in response to China's rise as a global power.
