This book delves into the intricate dynamics of the rivalry between the formal and informal empires of Great Britain, Japan, and the United States of America during the interwar years. It explores how regional relations were negotiated in Asia and the Pacific, taking into account the involvement of various international organizations such as the League of Nations and the Institute of Pacific Relations, as well as internationally minded intellectuals from different countries. This complex network of actors formed a unique form of regional governance in the Asia-Pacific, which underwent significant transformations as post-war decolonization accelerated and the United States became a dominant power in the region. The influence of big foundations, including Carnegie, Rockefeller, and Ford, further reinforced this system.
By examining the circumstances that led to the collapse of formal empires in the Asia-Pacific, this book offers valuable insights into hitherto unknown aspects of the region's transnational history. It serves as a valuable resource for students and scholars of twentieth-century history, particularly in the fields of internationalism and the Asia-Pacific region.
