520    Chinese leaders once tried to suppress memories of their 
       nation's brutal experience during World War II. Now they 
       celebrate the "victory"-a key foundation of China's rising
       nationalism. For most of its history, the People's 
       Republic of China limited public discussion of the war 
       against Japan. It was an experience of victimization-and 
       one that saw Mao Zedong and Chiang Kai-shek fighting for 
       the same goals. But now, as China grows more powerful, the
       meaning of the war is changing. Rana Mitter argues that 
       China's reassessment of the World War II years is central 
       to its newfound confidence abroad and to mounting 
       nationalism at home. China's Good War begins with the 
       academics who shepherded the once-taboo subject into wider
       discourse. Encouraged by reforms under Deng Xiaoping, they
       researched the Guomindang war effort, collaboration with 
       the Japanese, and China's role in forming the post-1945 
       global order. But interest in the war would not stay 
       confined to scholarly journals. Today public sites of 
       memory-including museums, movies and television shows, 
       street art, popular writing, and social media-define the 
       war as a founding myth for an ascendant China. Wartime 
       China emerges as victor rather than victim. The shifting 
       story has nurtured a number of new views. One 
       rehabilitates Chiang Kai-shek's war efforts, minimizing 
       the bloody conflicts between him and Mao and aiming to 
       heal the wounds of the Cultural Revolution. Another 
       narrative positions Beijing as creator and protector of 
       the international order that emerged from the war-an order,
       China argues, under threat today largely from the United 
       States. China's radical reassessment of its collective 
       memory of the war has created a new foundation for a 
       people destined to shape the world.
