Is China an Imperialist Country?

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Could not find any sources, only places I could purchase the book from as well as answers to the question itself. I believe there may be reliable sources out there but I did not come across any, which is why I would rather discuss this first. However, it appears to just genuinely be a non-notable book which fails WP:GNG. WaddlesJP13 (talk &#124; contributions) 03:14, 6 August 2021 (UTC)

The book is mentioned and cited in this Monthly Review article:https://monthlyreview.org/2021/07/01/china-imperialism-or-semi-periphery/ and here:https://www.red-path.net/analysis/is-china-an-imperialist-country/critical-notes/29-some-critical-comments-on-the-n-b-turner-document, and here as well:https://www.alainet.org/es/articulo/212003 Comradeka (talk)Comradeka

 * Delete Is China an Imperialist Country?: Considerations and Evidence is a book written by N.B. Turner and published by Kersplebedeb Publishing. I conducted searches for sources and found that the book was cited in https://monthlyreview.org/2021/07/01/china-imperialism-or-semi-periphery/ and https://outraspalavras.net/outrasmidias/china-distante-do-imperialismo-e-do-sul-global/ but the book itself wasn't discussed in detail in those sources. The book fails Notability and Notability (books). Cunard (talk) 10:01, 7 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete I found no sources detailing the actual book, only passing mentions of the book. Of course, for something to be notable, it needs more than just passing mentions. Fails WP:GNG. Delete. Helen (💬📖) 01:14, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
