The Open Door Doctrine, as is well known, has become a cardinal principle of American diplomacy. Just as the Monroe Doctrine governs American diplomacy in relations with Latin A merica, so the Open Door Doctrine guides American diplomacy in the Orient, particularly with respect to China. In fact, American foreign relations with China may be said to be conducted in terms of the Open Door Doctrine. Hence, a correct understanding of this policy is of vital importance. The author has searched diligently for studies on this subject, but he has found few writings that gave a satisfactory presentation. While there are fragmentary essays, he has been impressed with the lack of a comprehensive work relating to the Doctrine. It is, therefore, hoped that this work may fill this need. Particular endeavors have been made to obtain the highest and the most authoritative sources of information and materials.
