Shin Gyu-hwan: The Red Doctors of Beijing

In the late 19th century, China was being further divided into territories by the imperial states in the breakup of the Chinese Chinese-American order, and within it traditional rule was also breaking down, as were the continuing uprisings of farmers and the demands for reform of the intellectual institutions. In particular, each empire was beginning to promote trade expansion and national protection in China, and during the process of dealing with all kinds of epidemics, the new ‘hygienic ’ was becoming a powerful means for each state to try to expand its domination and maintain the right of colonialism in China. So to get organized population management out of the resilience and the general feudal order, the Chinese were required to build a modern sanitation system that would be suitable for the construction of a new nation. The sanitation experiment, which began in Beijing in the mid- 1920s, created the basis for modern health care systems and urban perspectives in China. Although the 'Red Doctors of Peking' were not intended to build a socialist medical system from the beginning, the National Medical Experience in Beijing provided the imagination of the idealistic social model for the construction of new China in the cities and rural areas of China. The book contains the urban modernization experience of China and the internalization of modern medicine. Meanwhile, the study of Beijing's sanitation administration also seems to be responsible for restoring Chinese perspectives that, in response to existing Western-central health care systems in China, have been able to eliminate both extremes of emphasis on Chinese tradition and try to build a Chinese modern modern modern-scale approach to the construction of modern countries.
