Descriere

In 1899, U.S. Secretary of State John Hay wrote six world powers calling for an Open Door in China that would guarantee equal trading opportunities, curtail colonial annexation and prevent conflict in the Far East. In an examination of its origins and development, we discover how the idea of the Open Door came to define the American Century.
