Baxter, Christopher.

The great power struggle in East Asia, 1944-50Britain, America andpost-war rivalry /[electronic resource] :by Christopher Baxter. - Basingstoke :Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - p.cm. - Global conflict and security since 1945.

Defeating Japan -- Wartime Post-War Planning -- Japan Surrenders -- Occupation and Civil War -- Questioning Engagement -- Going into Reverse -- The Road to War.

The first comprehensive account of British policy towards China, Japan and Korea from the final stages of the Second World War to the outbreak of the Korean War, placed in the broader context of Far Eastern developments, the beginnings of the Cold War, dealings with the Commonwealth and, above all, relations with the United States. Based upon research in British, American and Australian archives, this book examines the tensions that emerged within the Anglo-American relationship as the United States sought to dominate the East Asian agenda and Britain agonised over the international role it should play in the region. That tension intensified over what the British perceived as an American failure todevise a post-war plan for East Asia other than the containment of Japan. As Communistthreats inside China and Korea gained momentum, Britain, with valuable Far Eastern interests to protect, could not afford theAsian mainland to turn 'red' and found itself drawn increasingly into EastAsian affairs far more than it desired.
