Western Enterprise in Far Eastern Economic Development charts the
activities of Western firms in China and Japan from the middle of
the nineteenth century, when those countries were opened to foreign
trade, until recently. The organization of the Western business
undertakings, the types of firms concerned and relations between
the Westerners and the Japanese and Chinese economies are all
discussed. Among the economic activities covered are: merchant
banking, finance, manufacturing, mining, shipping and domestic
transport. A dominant theme is the contrast presented by China and
Japan in their response to Western enterprise.

theory."The Economist Describing and analyzing the part played by

Indonesia and Malaysia, the period covered by this survey extends
from the early decades of the nineteenth century to the 1950s.
Special attention is given to the changes that have taken place
since the Second World War. The intricate economic relations
between Westerners and Asians, and the results of changes in those

Japan are also examined.
