Abstract

From before the time of the Imo military riots (1882) to the eve of the Sino-Japanese War (1894), China abandoned her previous laissez-faire policy toward Korea and adopted a more active line. During the late nineteenth century, China's Korean policy was set by governor-general Li Hung-chang and was carried out by Yuan Shih-k'ai. The emergence of this policy and its evolutionary process were not only a crucial part of China's diplomatic history, but also a key point in the development of Korea's political situation. The new policy had a profound influence on subsequent Sino-Japanese relations and the international situation in East Asia.
