"Durling Manchuria" shows how large-scale production of alcohol and opium survived in northeastern China in the conditions of militaristic fragmentation, Japanese invasion, political conflicts, and developed movement against narcotic substances.
Norman Smith analyzes the images of alcohol and opium in the Chinese media to explain how society perceived dummy substances and dependence on them, and what measures were taken to reduce their consumption - this topic was not previously raised in scientific literature.
