It shows how the treaty provisions—which provided for Britain’s ideal extra-territorial regime—were influenced by Britain’s considerably greater experience in Japan beginning in 1859. The caseload proved miniscule in the absence of any large British commercial or maritime presence. Nevertheless, it provides an insight into extra-territoriality’s operation outside major commercial centres and ports. Britain’s protection of Chinese interests in Korea in the aftermath of the Sino-Japanese War, 1894–1895 is also covered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgements \u003cbr\u003eList of Maps and Tables \u003cbr\u003eNote on Personal and Place Names \u003cbr\u003eNote on Currency \u003cbr\u003eAbbreviations \u003cbr\u003eBritish Foreign Secretaries and Diplomatic \u003cbr\u003eRepresentatives in Tokyo and Beijing, 1883–1914 \u003cbr\u003ePreface \u003cbr\u003e1.
