American Radio in China cover

Interwar era efforts to expand US radio into China floundered in the face of flawed US policies and approaches. Situated at the intersection of media studies, technology studies, and US foreign relations, this study frames the ill-fated radio initiatives as symptomatic of an increasingly troubled US-East Asian relationship before the Pacific War.

'..a valuable contribution to the scholarship on cultural diplomacy...This engaging account of American broadcasting reveals a complex picture of radio's impact in China.' -Kelly Ann Long, Colorado State University, Journal of American History
