It focuses on the 'scramble' in Asia, when the British Raj incorporated Upper Burma (1885), and the French created a protectorate in Annam-Tonkin, the Northern part of present-day Vietnam (1884). Fought over by the colonial states and neighbouring nations, the frontier zones were fashioned and represented not only by the two European powers, but also by the Chinese Empire, the Kingdom of Siam, and the local populations. The counterpoint between the discourses produced and the cartographical practices on the ground, in the longue durée, lays bare the interacting processes of territory-building in all their unpredictability. This book, translated by Saskia Brown, is the updated version of the author's Aux confins des empires. Cartes et constructions territoriales dans le nord de la péninsule indochinoise (1885-1914) (Paris: Éditions de la Sorbonne, 2018)"--  |c Provided by publisher.
