Economic Partner and Exotic Other: China and Japan at San Francisco's Panama-Pacific International Exposition

Abstract

China's and Japans role in San Francisco's Panama-Pacific International Exposition demonstrates that although both nations sought to use the fair to construct themselves as progressive, modern nations, they faced entrenched anti-Asian racism in California, which contributed to the production of contradictory representations of the Chinese and Japanese at the fair.
