CarrollHong Kong, [China] :Hong Kong University Press,2016.©20161 online resource (267 pages) illustrations, photographs, mapsPreviously issued in print: 2017.988-8208-00-4 Includes bibliographical references at the end of each chapters and index.The Cold War was a distinct and crucial period in Hong Kong's evolution and in its relations with China and the rest of the world. Hong Kong was a window through which the West could monitor what was happening in China and an outlet that China could use to keep in touch with the outside world. Exploring the many complexities of Cold War politics from a global and interdisciplinary perspective, 'Hong Kong in the Cold War' shows how Hong Kong attained and honed a pragmatic tradition that bridged the abyss between such opposite ideas as capitalism and communism, thus maintaining a compromise between China and the rest of the world.Hong Kong (China)History20th centuryElectronic books.951.2504Roberts PriscillaCarroll John M.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910159517303321Hong Kong in the Cold War1952701UNINA
