The United States and the Far Eastern Crisis of 1933–1938

Dorothy Borg

The book focuses on the complex diplomatic challenges the United States faced as Japan increasingly pressured China during this five-year period, culminating in the outbreak of full-scale war between China and Japan in 1937. She provides a critical examination of American diplomatic restraint and the policy decisions that characterized U.S. responses to Japanese aggression in China during the 1930s. The work covers the period from the aftermath of the Manchurian Incident (1931) through the initial stages of what would become the Second Sino-Japanese War. It explains how American policy-makers navigated the escalating crisis in the Far East during the Roosevelt administration, particularly examining the tension between American interests, isolationist tendencies, and the growing threat posed by Japanese militarism.
