Recenzii

"This volume provides a sophisticated understanding of the British presence in China and the actors and agencies involved within the broader contours of the British Empire. Its chapters help to trace the construction of the British presence in China as a transnational agent through migration, labour, foreign capital and wars. This transnational character of the British presence in China presents us with difficulties in distinguishing clearly between what was ‘Chinese’ and what was ‘foreign’, a theme that seems central to several chapters in this volume (especially those by
Hirata, Howlett, Jackson and Chen)."
