For many of these restive minorities, the old Chinese adage "the mountains are high and the Emperor far away", signifying Beijing's hold on electricity is tenuous and its influence unwelcome, is constantly on the resonate.

Deconstructing the common myths symbolized by Beijing, Eimer shows a shocking and attractive picture of a China that is more of the empire when compared to a country.
