Sobre IBD

China’s Unequal Treaties offers a study, based on primary sources, of the linguistic development and polemical uses of the expression ’Unequal Treaties’ to refer to the treaties written between 1842 and 1943. Although the expression has occupied a central position in both Chinese collective memory and English historiographies, China’s Unequal Treaties is the first study of the phrase and its interpretations.
