Foreign Office Files for China, 1919-1980

This resource, published in six parts, makes available the
complete British Foreign Office files dealing with China,
Hong Kong and Taiwan during these decades. The documents
combine eyewitness accounts, weekly and monthly summaries,
annual reviews, reports and analyses with a synthesis of
newspaper articles and conference reports, economic
assessments and synopses on leading Chinese personalities.
There is a constant exchange of information between London
and British diplomatic outposts in China and a continual
dialogue on issues relating to East Asia between Britain
and America as well as with European and Commonwealth
partners. Sino-Soviet relations also become a very
important consideration in the Cold War era.
