Concentrating on the rivalry between the formal and informal
empires of Great Britain, Japan and the United States of America,
this book examines how regional relations were negotiated in Asia
and the Pacific during the interwar years. A range of international
organizations including the League of Nations and the Institute of
Pacific Relations, as well as internationally minded intellectuals
in various countries, intersected with each other, forming a type
of regional governance in the Asia-Pacific. This system transformed
itself as post-war decolonization accelerated and the United States
entered as a major power in the region. This was further reinforced
by big foundations, including Carnegie, Rockefeller and Ford. This
book sheds light on the circumstances leading to the collapse of
formal empires in the Asia-Pacific alongside hitherto unknown
aspects of the region's transnational history. A valuable resource
for students and scholars of the twentieth century history of the
Asia-Pacific region, and of twentieth century internationalism
