Empires on the Waterfront: Japan’s Ports and Power, 1858–1899 - Harvard East Asian Monographs
Catherine L. Phipps
Catherine L. Phipps examines a largely unacknowledged system of “special trading ports” that operated under full Japanese jurisdiction in the shadow of the better-known treaty ports. Phipps demonstrates why the special trading ports were key to Japan’s achieving autonomy and regional power during the pivotal second half of the nineteenth century.
