Thesis Title: British Intellectuals, and Intelligence on China: Cooperation and Conflicts between interest groups, 1833-1902
Abstract: This thesis examines British imperial expansion in China after the Opium Wars. It focuses in particular on intelligence gathering as a key component of imperial policy, analysing how information was collected, circulated, and interpreted. The project aims to illuminate the mechanisms through which public and private sectors were loosely connected in intelligence practices prior to the formal establishment of British state intelligence agencies.
