Reviews
'In this deeply researched account, Lopes illuminates how Macau became a refugee city, a cosmopolitan society, and a global wartime nexus. At once diplomatic and social history, this book challenges our understandings of neutrality and collaboration. This book puts Macau on the map of histories of empire, China, and the world.' Denise Ho, Yale University
'This is a well researched and thoughtful exploration of the ways in which the liminal territory of Macau during World War II complicates our conventional understandings of such concepts of neutrality, Empire, and collaboration. A brilliant book that will be a welcome addition to the growing literature on the war in East and Southeast Asia.' Julia C. Strauss, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London
