This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1909 edition. Excerpt: ... as the French lease of Kwang-chau Bay. Great Britain was anxious to see the policy of "the open door" carried out in China, so that all the nations should have fair play, and in all the discussions which took place in Parliament on the subject, this was insisted upon, as well as the necessity of maintaining the integrity of the Chinese Empire. The matters were also much discussed in Japan, and an association was formed in April 1898 called the Taigai-doshi-kwai or Association of Foreign Policy, with a view to induce the Government to take measures to meet the new order of things. It was composed of prominent statesmen and other leading men in the country, and, when its representatives called upon Marquis Ito, the Premier " assured them that the Government would not neglect to promote the interests of the nation," and is said to have intimated " that the attitude of Great Britain was very favourable to Japan." Shortly afterwards, the Japanese Government, in order to forestall the lease or occupation of the province of Fokien opposite Formosa by a European Power, which would menace Japan's possession of Formosa and Pescadores Islands, demanded and obtained, just as Great Britain had in respect of the Yang-tsze Valley, from China a promise not to alienate the province. In order not to be behind the other European Powers, in February 1899 Italy demanded from the Chinese Government the lease of Sammum Bay on the coast of Che-kiang as a coaling station and naval base, including the concession of three islands off the coast, with the right to construct a railway from Sammum Bay to Poyang Lake within a sphere of influence comprising the southern two-thirds of Che-kiang province as necessary to the preservation of the...

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Japan in World Politics, a Study in International Dynamics (Classic Reprint)
(Japan since it came into contact with Western civilisatio...)
Japan since it came into contact with Western civilisation about the middle of last century, and also indicated the forces which had been at work in bringing about what is admitted to be the political wonder of the latter half of the nineteenth century, namely, the rise of Japan as a World Power. The immediate occasion for its appearance was the outbreak of war between Japan and Russia, and it was intended to give the people of Europe and America a fairly complete account of the new Power which had arisen in the Far East. It is a fact that discussions on social, economic, or political subjects are apt to be idle, unfruitful, and certainly tiresome, unless they are connected with some live temporary issue, and the chief object of the present book is to consider some of the tendencies of the present time as illustrated by some of the important international problems which have resulted from the war between Japan and Russia as well as some of the wider aspects of the results of the economic and political development of Japan. The discussion of these subjects and the consideration of the problems involved will give the opportunity of testing, in a practical way, some of the opinions expressed in my former book, and of illustrating 1D ai Nippon, The Britain of the East, Blackie Son, Ltd., London and Glasgow.
