Annotation Like its predecessor, this important new work is focused on the connection between trade and investment on the one hand and U.S. foreign policy on the other. David Pletcher describes the trade of the United States with the Far East, the islands of the Pacific, and the northwest coast of North America from 1784 (the year of the first American trading expedition to China) to 1844 (the year of the first trade treaty with China, followed immediately by the U.S. acquisition of Oregon and California). He then traces the growth of trade and investment in Alaska, Hawaii, and the South Pacific from 1844 to 1890 and proceeds to do the same for China, Japan, and Korea. In the ensuing chapters, Pletcher covers the 1890s, including the annexation of Hawaii, the Sino-Japanese War, the acquisition of the Philippines, and the Open Door policy in China. He concludes that the American expansion across the Pacific and into the Far East was not a deliberate, consistent drive for economic hegemony but a halting, experimental, improvised movement, carried out against determined opposition and indifference and dotted with setbacks and failures. Providing his own judgments about the wisdom and effectiveness of America's new endeavors, Pletcher summarizes the problems and handicaps involved, demonstrating that errors of the twentieth century were at least partly the result of poor preparation in the 1880s and 1890s. Touching on every place where Americans undertook significant economic activity, The Diplomacy of Involvementwill be an important aid for seasoned scholars, as well as an excellent introduction for the novice

乘風破浪來到中國的英國商人 以企業視角書寫香港、中國的權威商業史 作者使用未曾與世人見面的太古集團檔案，為這間公司撰寫它度過動蕩不安中國近代史兩百年的迷人故事。民族崛起、帝國衰落，而太古集團這艘船航行穿越風暴。這是英國史和中國史一流史家的上乘之作。──《帝國暮色》作者史蒂芬．普拉特（Stephen R. Platt） 畢可思把英國在中國的歷史寫得無可匹敵。本書講述一段橫跨兩百年動盪歷史的非凡故事，關於一個來自利物浦的家族企業如何成為亞洲的一部分。──香港大學歷史系教授高馬可（John M. Carroll），著有《帝國夾縫中的香港》（Edge of Empires： Chinese Elites and British Colonials in Hong Kong） 這是亞洲一間重要英國公司的故事。但這個故事的意義遠不止於此……畢可思使用各式素材，其中許多是學者們從未見過的史料，他探討太古在亞洲創造新的貿易路線和商業關係……同時面對戰爭和一九四九年中國共產主義革命的影響。這是一部強而有力又重要的歷史，將在英國與亞洲關係走上全新且不可預測的變化之際留下印記，其敘事風格和活力就連最鋌而走險的大班都會滿意。──芮納．米德（Rana Mitter），著有《中國的抗日戰爭，1937-1945》（China’s War with Japan, 1937-1945: The Struggle for Survival） 一個西方家族商行——也是擁有諸多商行的家族——如何在亞洲生存並蓬勃發展兩個多世紀？一間開路先鋒般的私人企業如何巡航穿越現代中國的戰爭、革命和改革開放？畢可思把這個太古集團的故事講得精彩絕倫。這本書有很多身分：這是一本讀起來像小說的權威商業史。這是一部帝國衝突與競爭的大戲。這是關於商業創造我們今天生活的現代世界及其機構的故事。從商業的角度來看，這是一段中國和香港的迷人歷史。這本書適合研究現代中國及其外交關係的讀者，以及今天在中國做生意的人。這段歷史有很多教訓值得今人汲取。──柯偉林（William C. Kirby），哈佛大學T. M. Chang中國研究講座教授 ▌從鴉片戰爭前的小公司到今日活躍全球的多角化企業 英國人利用蒸汽動力來到亞洲，又如何利用商業開展全球企業版圖，甚至進入以天朝自居、又日漸衰敗的中國？本書追溯至一八一六年，擁有兩百年歷史的太古公司原只是利物浦一個規模不大的進出口公司，經歷了兩世紀以來，技術、社會、經濟的變動，最初從美洲進口染料、棉花和蘋果，現在則是領導食衣住行的集團，業務遍及全球，但主要的業務營運地集中在亞洲。從一八六六年起，它的命運與中國歷史的發展、香港糖業食品的經營方向、海上到空中的交通，緊密相連，也開拓了貨暢其流的全世界商業發展。 ▌是迄今最權威、詳實的太古集團企業史 《太古集團與近代中國》完整地記錄了太古集團的歷史、家族脈絡、商業策略、它的成就、困境，經歷了戰爭、革命，和波折不斷的全球經濟。這本傑出的企業剖析，不僅精闢解析，更結合各方面的歷史洞察：企業本身和所處的環境，近代中國、英國以及永遠迎頭趕上的全球化浪潮，所觸及的買辦、船東、東西方商人、革命家、海盜以及英國統治時期的香港企業高層。任何對全球貿易感興趣的人，必讀《太古集團與近代中國》，它提供了一段貼近近代生活的歷史，有助於理解當今亞洲的經濟企業形態。
