Race, law, and "the Chinese puzzle" in imperial Britain
Auerbach, Sascha.

Race, law, and "the Chinese puzzle" in imperial Britain[electronicresource] /Sascha Auerbach. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - xii, 268 p. :ill., maps ;22 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [239]-256) and index.

"Chinese labour" and the imperial dimensions of British racial discourse -- The dragon and Saint George, 1910-14 -- "Most insidious is the oriental in the West": Chinese and Britons in wartime London -- East (End) meets West (End) -- "This plague spot of the metropolis," 1919-21 -- Epilogue :the ghosts of Chinatown.

This book examines the historical evolution of Chinese communities in early twentieth-centuryBritain and their significance in the development of race as a category in British law, politics, and culture. During this period, fears about the moral and economic impact of Chinese immigration, amplified by press sensationalism and lurid fictional portrayals of London's "Chinatown" as a den of vice and iniquity, prompted mass arrests, deportations, and mob violence. Even after Chinatown was demolished and its inhabitants dispersed, the stereotype of the Chinese criminal mastermind and other "yellow peril" images remained as permanentaspects of British culture.
