Download Japan's Treaty Ports and Foreign Settlements Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The importance of the Chinese Treaty Ports, and the foreign settlements which grew up around them, has long been recognized and is reflected in many scholarly studies. However, the Japanese treaty ports and their sometimes contentious role as regards Japan's development in the second half of the 19th century, are less well-known and scarcely studied outside Japan. This book offers a detailed examination of the subject in English and aims to fill that gap.

Download Japan's Early Experience of Contract Management in the Treaty Ports Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This is the first in-depth study of the early trial-and-error experiences of contracting between Japanese and western merchants trading in the Japanese Treaty Ports in the eighteen year period immediately following the opening of the ports in 1859. Fundamental to the equation were the inevitable east-west cultural and legal ambiguities that impacted on the traders. The learning curve for both westerners and Japanese regarding the nature and application of western contracting law was predictably difficult, tortuous and open to constant misunderstanding. Nevertheless, it was within such a framework that the principal benchmarks for trade with Japan were set down and which, in essence, have lasted to the present day.

Download Life in Treaty Port China and Japan Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
This edited volume moves beyond the traditional examination of the treaty ports of China and Japan as places of cultural interaction. It moves ‘beyond the Bund’, presenting instead the history of material culture, the everyday life of the residents of the treaty ports beyond the symbology of Shanghai's waterfront. Bringing for the first time together scholars of China and Japan, museum curators, legal, economic and architectural historians, it studies the treaty ports not only as sites of cultural exchange, but also as sites of social contestation, accommodation and mobility, covering topics as varied as day to day life itself, such as family, property and law, health and welfare, travel, visual culture and memory. The call of this volume is to peel the multiple layers of the encounter between East and West in the treaty ports of China and Japan.
