"Problems of the Pacific 1929" presents a comprehensive record of the Third Conference of the Institute of Pacific Relations held in Nara and Kyoto, Japan. Edited by J. B. Condliffe, this collection of proceedings offers an invaluable historical window into the complex geopolitical and socioeconomic landscape of the Pacific region during the pivotal interwar period.
The volume captures scholarly and diplomatic discussions on critical issues such as migration, land utilization, international trade, and the diplomatic tensions inherent in the shifting power dynamics of East Asia and the West. As a primary source, it documents the efforts of non-governmental actors to foster international cooperation and understanding amidst the rising nationalism and economic instability of the late 1920s. Detailed analyses cover China's foreign relations, the industrialization of Japan, and the evolving role of Western powers in the Pacific Rim.
"Problems of the Pacific 1929" remains an essential resource for historians, political scientists, and students of international relations seeking to understand the roots of modern trans-Pacific diplomacy and the historical challenges that shaped the 20th-century geopolitical order.
