Papers by Shawn McHale
War Studies 13:1 (Winter 2011): 60–100. DOI: 10.1162/JCWS_a_00071. The review, which appeared in the online site H-DIPLO, underlines the signal contribution of Zinoman's work.

It also takes issue with some minor aspects of Zinoman's approach to past scholarship on the Nhân Văn--Giai Phẩm affair.
