Mining the informal empire
This article examines the history of ironmaking in Anshan in southern Manchuria (Northeast China) between 1909 and 1931, utilising Japanese and Chinese sources. I argue that the history of Anshan embodies the ambiguous statuses of Japan and China in the global economic order of the early twentieth century. Japan, despite being the only non-Western imperialist power, had a relatively underdeveloped economy and continued to import industrial techno…
Making Mao's Steelworks
Located in Manchuria (Northeast China), the geopolitical borderland between China, Russia, and Japan, among others, Anshan Iron and Steel Works (Angang) was Mao-era China's most important industrial enterprise. The history of Angang from 1915 to 2000 reveals the hybrid nature of China's accelerated industrialization, shaped by transnational interactions, domestic factors, and local dynamics. Utilizing archives in Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and E…
Market Maoists
In this well-researched book, the author explores the complex commercial relationship between the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and capitalist countries during the period from the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937–45) to the later years of Mao Zedong's rule (1949–76). The focus is on the CCP leadership, including Mao himself, the trade bureaucracy, particularly the Ministry of International Trade, and their foreign counterparts. The book reveals tha…
Mao’s Steeltown
This article examines the construction of industrial cities in the early years of the People’s Republic of China (PRC; 1949-) by focusing on Anshan—a major steel city in Manchuria (Northeast China) that had been constructed by the Japanese prior to 1945. I demonstrate that the PRC industrial cities embodied the nature and limits of the new socialist regime’s vision of industrialization. The early PRC overwhelmingly focused its resources on heavy …
Made in Manchuria
With its high concentration of state-owned enterprises (SOEs) in heavy industry, Manchuria (Northeast China) functioned as a symbol of the "socialist industrialization" in the early years of the People's Republic of China (PRC, 1949-). Many Manchurian SOEs nevertheless originated as Japanese colonial enterprises founded before 1945. Drawing on archives and interviews in Chinese, Japanese, English, and Russian, I trace industrial Manchuria's trans…

Britain's Men on the Spot in China
In this paper I examine British policy towards the Yuan Shikai government in China between 1912 and 1914 through a consideration of the role of Britain's 'men on the spot' in China (i.e. British diplomats and bankers resident there). In doing so, I synthesize two bodies of literature that rarely interact: British imperial history and work by China historians. Three main elements shaped British policy in China: first, British policy-makers were de…
The Land System of the Buganda Kingdom
In this note, we firstly trace the changes in the land system mainly in the Buganda kingdom in Uganda since the begining of British colonization in the late ninteenth century till the abolition of kingships by establishment of the (Republican) Constisution in September 1967. Secondly, we consider the significance and the role of the land system of the Buganda kingdom during the colonial period. The Uganda Agreement which was signed in 1900 was th…
