Reading Empire & Righteous Nation: 600 Years of China-Korea Relations (2021) by Norwegian historian, Odd Arne Westad.

Interesting, if not cursory, examination of comparative nationalism from Sun Yat-sen on the "rule of might" vs. the "rule of right." Revolutionary dogmatism draped in the rhetoric of justice, not so different from ours, though certainly from a different perspective and initiation.
