In the turbulent years after World War I, American and Chinese cultural figures sought to transform the terms by which the United States and China or, more broadly, "East" and "West" knew each other. Individually, they produced works that altered American conceptions of China and vice versa. Together, they collaborated on political projects that synthesized American and Chinese visions of equality. Their transpacific community upset traditional routes of power and articulated a new course for East-West cultural exchange.
