Chapter 1. Launching a New Methodology for the Study of Contemporary China -- Chapter 2. Applying the One-dot Theory Again to the Study of Contemporary China -- Chapter 3. Finding Fault with the Non-One-Dot-Theory Study of Contemporary China -- Chapter 4. Challenging Other Theories and Models in General and Those Related to Contemporary China in Particular -- Chapter 5. Sharing Some Major Findings in This Study of Contemporary China -- Chapter 6. Closing and Non-Closing This Book on the Study of Contemporary China.

This book illustrates how the one-dot theory, which is a dialectical study, is well suited to describing, explaining and inferring contemporary China’s past, present and future. It argues that since October 1949, the field of contemporary China studies has been dominated by modified and abandoned non-dialectical theories and models. It also challenges selected non-dialectical theories and models which were first generated in the West, such as the game theory and rational (choice) theory. With its emphasis on methodology, the book offers a valuable resource for academics, researchers and practitioners alike with an interest in logically, systematically and coherently unraveling Taiwan’s and mainland China’s contemporary politics and international relations..
