Bloomsbury Anglo-Japanese Alliance: Diplomacy 1894-1907 by Nish

This scholarly examination by Professor Nish explores one of the most significant diplomatic developments in Far Eastern politics during the critical 1894-1907 period. The work demonstrates how Britain and Japan responded to Russian expansion in China and East Asia, initially through separate policies and later through their joint alliance. Nish also analyses the positions of other European powers and the United States, whose growing hostility towards the Anglo-Japanese alliance after 1905 increasingly influenced British foreign policy. Originally published in 1966 and now part of the Bloomsbury Academic Collections series, this title provides essential historical context for understanding imperial diplomacy and the strategic partnerships that shaped early twentieth-century international relations in Asia.
