In this groundbreaking work, the Cold War is unraveled and redefined as a clash of imperialisms. Focusing on two pivotal colonies, Hong Kong (1938-1952) and Cyprus (1941-1955), the book exposes the strategic maneuvers against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Progressive Party of Working People (AKEL). Dive into the motivations and actions of British colonial policymakers navigating the challenges posed by international anti-colonialism, colonial nationalisms, and coordinated communist movements. This revisionist study asserts that British imperialism, alongside the Soviet Union, not only initiated but also shaped and evolved within the Cold War context.
