Recensioner i media

“This book presents original perspectives on Macau’s neutrality during the Second World War. Its key theoretical contribution is demonstrating that neutrality is not a static concept of 'non-participation' and 'non-alignment' but rather a dynamic relationship between strong and weak states. For me, the central research question of this book is: ‘how did Macau survive during the Second World War?’ This makes the book valuable not only to historians but also to scholars in diplomacy and international relations.” (Ying-ho Kwong, The China Review, Vol. 24 (4), November, 2024)
