Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from England's Policy in China Our 'position towards China is not entirely new, but the gravity of it is now being realised for the first the. England has more reason than Napoleon had in Egypt to remind her soldiers and her politicians in the Flowery Land that they are in the presence of Forty Centuries. His Forty Centuries looked down from Memnon's statue, from pyramid and obelisk and sculptured tomb, over great sandy wastes, and on a scanty degraded population long accustomed to the persuasion of the stick; but on the Expeditionary Force to China the Forty Centuries which look down are no ghost of a dead Past, but a vast nation, a polity, a mode of thought and modes of life, which have beheld the birth of authentic history, and, having survived the vicissitudes of four thousand years, are still hale and strong though they have lost the fire of youth. 'we have not to do with a country thinly peopled by savage tribes, which must yield their hunting grounds to the expanding populations of Bumpe. It is not a mouldering corpse or a sick man before which we now stand, but a great and grave nation sufi'ering chiefly from the wounds which we 'have ourselves wantonly inflicted. It is a nation with arts and sciences which content its wants; with a literature unequalled in the depth of its practical wisdom with a state of society more homogeneous and th oroughly organised than any other existing on the globe; with education generally diffused; with material benefits richly ahareii by the labouring classes with a population which numbers more than a third of the human race, and which neither desires our interference nor refuses to accept our commerce.

Download or read book The Long Game written by Rush Doshi and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-11 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For more than a century, no US adversary or coalition of adversaries - not Nazi Germany, Imperial Japan, or the Soviet Union - has ever reached sixty percent of US GDP. China is the sole exception, and it is fast emerging into a global superpower that could rival, if not eclipse, the United States. What does China want, does it have a grand strategy to achieve it, and what should the United States do about it? In The Long Game, Rush Doshi draws from a rich base of Chinese primary sources, including decades worth of party documents, leaked materials, memoirs by party leaders, and a careful analysis of China's conduct to provide a history of China's grand strategy since the end of the Cold War. Taking readers behind the Party's closed doors, he uncovers Beijing's long, methodical game to displace America from its hegemonic position in both the East Asia regional and global orders through three sequential "strategies of displacement." Beginning in the 1980s, China focused for two decades on "hiding capabilities and biding time." After the 2008 Global Financial Crisis, it became more assertive regionally, following a policy of "actively accomplishing something." Finally, in the aftermath populist elections of 2016, China shifted to an even more aggressive strategy for undermining US hegemony, adopting the phrase "great changes unseen in century." After charting how China's long game has evolved, Doshi offers a comprehensive yet asymmetric plan for an effective US response. Ironically, his proposed approach takes a page from Beijing's own strategic playbook to undermine China's ambitions and strengthen American order without competing dollar-for-dollar, ship-for-ship, or loan-for-loan.
Download or read book Britain s China Policy and the Opium Crisis written by Glenn Melancon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-28 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first Opium War (1840-42) was a defining moment in Anglo-Chinese relations, and since the 1840s the histories of its origins have tended to have been straightforward narratives, which suggest that the British Cabinet turned to its military to protect opium sales and to force open the China trade. Whilst the monetary aspects of the war cannot be ignored, this book argues that economic interests should not overshadow another important aspect of British foreign policy - honour and shame. The Palmerston's government recognised that failure to act with honour generated public outrage in the form of petitions to parliament and loss of votes, and as a result was at pains to take such considerations into account when making policy. Accordingly, British Cabinet officials worried less about the danger to economic interests than the threat to their honour and the possible loss of power in Parliament. The decision to wage a drug war, however, made the government vulnerable to charges of immorality, creating the need to justify the war by claiming it was acting to protect British national honour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2013 in the subject History - World History - Modern History, printed single-sided, grade: 6.0, University of Basel, course: The British Empire, language: English, comment: 6 = Highest Achievable Grade in Switzerland. Supervisor: Deputy Director German Historical Institute of London, abstract: From the beginning, British trade with China was restricted to confinements in Canton, as the Qing Emperors saw the foreign intruders as a potential threat and were keen on keeping the foreigners beyond their borders and under tight control. This relationship between the two Empires only changed at the beginning of the 19th century when the British decided to renew their trade interests in the Far East. The following time was then characterized by an increase of diplomatic efforts between the expansionist British and the reluctant Qing Emperors, which was eventually disrupted by war. In this paper, I want to analyse the development of the British political and economic relations to China, during the period of time in 1793 - 1860. This period was chosen as it marked a turning point in the Anglo-Chinese relations, causing events that immensely affected the histories of both Empires to come, and leading to the rise of one, and the downfall of the other. The year 1793 witnessed the journey of the Macartney Embassy to the court of the Qing Emperor, which was the first renewed attempt to secure trade concessions for the unsatisfied East India Company. This first diplomatic act was bound to failure due to the fundamental differences in cultural self-conception. The subsequent events demonstrate the continuation of failed awareness from two Empires each seeing themselves as the centre of the world. In this way, the tensions during this time between the powers were also influenced by the change from a cultural to an economic clash, exposing the interests of both nations in the conflict. The failure of diplomatic measurements is of particular interest in t
