Description

Explore a major theme in modern history with Britain's Retreat from Empire in East Asia, 1905-1980. This scholarly work from Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia examines the decline of British influence across the region. The narrative begins at a high point in 1905, following the victory of Japan over the Russian Empire, which initially seemed to reduce threats to British interests in India and China. As the decades progressed toward the end of the twentieth century, the book tracks how British power dwindled. It provides a detailed look at the various issues that define the significance of the British Empire in Asia and the specific nature of its imperial decline. This text is an essential resource for anyone studying the historical shifts that shaped the modern landscape of East and Southeast Asia.
