Publisher's Synopsis
This book is a fascinating exploration of the legal and political status of foreigners in China in the early 20th century. Author V K. Wellington Koo was a leading Chinese diplomat and statesman, and he brings a wealth of legal and historical knowledge to bear on the question of foreigners' rights in China. Koo's writing is lucid and persuasive, and his insights into the complex intersection of law, politics, and culture are as relevant today as they were when he wrote this book.
