How foreigners could live, communicate, move around ? even whom they could interaction with ? were all things strictly regulated by the Chinese authorities. The Europeans sometimes adapted to, and sometimes subverted, these rules. Focusing on this conditional domesticity shows the importance of gender relations, especially the construction of masculinity. Using the Swedish East India Company, a minor European actor in an expanding Asian empire, as a point of entry highlights the multiplicity of actors taking part in local negotiations of power. The European attempts at making a home in China contributes to a global turn in everyday history, but also to an everyday turn in global history. 410 0$aStudies in global social history ;$vVolume 34. 606 $aSwedes$zChina$xHistory$y18th century 607 $aGuangzhou (China)$xSocial life and customs$y18th century 615 0$aSwedes$xHistory 676 $a305.80905127509033 700 $aHellman$b Lisa$01159655 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812882303321 996 $aThis house is not a home$94108876 997 $aUNINA
