Examines the influence of International Society on East Asia, and how its attempts to introduce 'civilisation' to 'barbarous' polities contributed to conflict between China and Japan. This book contends that imperialism - along with an ideology premised on 'civilising' 'barbarous' peoples - played a central role in its historic development.
This book provides a critical examination of how state socialization has been conceptualized by examining the entry of China and Japan in the expansion of the European international order.
