Tradition, Treaties, And Trade
Relations between the Choson and Qing states are often cited as the prime example of the operation of the "traditional" Chinese "tribute system." This work contends that the motivations, tactics, and successes (and failures) of the late Qing Empire in Choson Korea mirrored those of other nineteenth-century imperialists.
