Abstract
Having been the subject of scholarly works in the 1980s and 1990s, the highlights of Sino-British relations during the Cold War are relatively known to readers. Britain's decision to keep the door open to Maoist China was meant to facilitate keeping Hong Kong as a colony, while propensity for trade led the former imperial power to defy a NATO economic embargo and engage in trading with the PRC. However, no book has covered the building process of Anglo-Chinese relations from early recognition in 1950 to exchange of ambassadors in 1972.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
