Abstract

This study of the 1929 Sin-Soviet conflict over the Chinese Eastern Railway represents an expanded narrative of the conflict in relation to four major processes which guided its development and resolution: (1) Chinese "rights recovery" policy, (2) the effects of Chinese internal politics, (3) differing perceptions of the reasons for and legitimacy of the conflict, and (4) the effects of international mediation and conciliation efforts.

Interpretation of the significance of the conflict is offered, along with explanatory appendices and suggestions for analytical approaches.
