Title : (Northeast Asian History Foundation Research Series 39)
       Illusion of Chinese Fanshu Theory

Lee, Suk Hyun et al.
Small Octavo Edition / 240 pages / 2010 / KRW11,000 (US$9) / ISBN 978-89-6187-183-9

The title analyzes China's Fanshu theory and presents logics to overcome it, by analyzing the most important studies of Fanshu theory ― Li Dalong (李大龍)'s (漢唐藩屬體制硏究) and Huang Songjun (黃松筠)'s (中國古代藩屬制度硏究). China has been carrying out relevant research to support the claim that Chinese history encompasses frontier states and nations as well as Han Chinese and Central Plain dynasties, and China has become a unified multi-ethnic nation today. The title points out that such claims of China are unilateral, focusing only on documents and records of China, and that incorrect terms and premises are used to describe Fanshu theory. The title reminds us of the danger of China's Fanshu theory and logical faults, and helps us find ways to overcome China's unilateral perception of Korea-China relations.
