This book restores and astutely unpacks a long-neglected yet pivotal episode of modern Dutch-Chinese ties. Drawing on extensive multilingual archives it details how the events of the 20th century profoundly reshaped this age-old relationship and continue to define it today. In this meticulously researched volume Vincent Chang resurrects a near forgotten yet pivotal chapter of Dutch-Chinese ties to narrate how World War II the civil war in China and Indonesia s decolonization redefined and remade this age-old bilateral relationship. Drawing on a unique range of hitherto unexplored archives the book explains how China s nascent rise on the global scene and the Netherlands simultaneous decline as a colonial power shaped events in Dutch-controlled Indonesia (and vice versa) and prompted a recalibration of their mutual ties culminating in the Netherlands recognition of the People s Republic and laying the foundations for Dutch and Chinese policies through to the present. Offering insightful analyses of power dynamics and international law at the close of empire this book is a critical resource for historians and China specialists as well as scholars of international relations.
