Print on Demand. This book explores the geopolitical dynamics that have shaped the struggle for dominance in the Pacific since the end of the 19th century. The author examines the ambitions of major powers including Japan, Russia, the United States, and European colonial empires, as they competed to control strategic territories, resources, and trade routes. The book highlights the rise of Japan as a formidable naval power and the rivalry with Russia that led to the Russo-Japanese War of 1904-1905. It discusses the emergence of the United States as a Pacific power in the wake of the Spanish-American War and the opening of the Panama Canal. The author also explores the impact of economic and technological advancements on the balance of power in the region. Ultimately, the book sheds light on the complex interplay between national interests, imperial ambitions, and the changing global order that has shaped the Pacific into a crucial arena of competition and cooperation. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…

Le Pacifique devenu une Méditerranée, c'est un paradoxe d'hier qui devient la réalité d'aujourd'hui. Autour de cette gigantesque mer intérieure, la plupart des grandes puissances qui, depuis tant de siècles, ont été, en Europe, les conductrices de l'histoire, sont représentées. L'angleterre, l'allemagne, la Russie, la France, la Hollande ont pris leurs positions autour de ces champs de bataille de l'avenir elles ont établi leurs comptoirs auprès de ces marchés. Nous voudrions d'abord montrer, sur cette scène nouvelle, ces vieilles nations en concurrence avec les Etats plus jeunes qui sont issus d'elles les états-unis, le Dominion du Ça nada, la Fédération australienne ou avec ce Japon, dont les dehors européens cachent une âme si prolon dément asiatique et si impénétrable à notre analyse. C'est le conflit du Japon avec la Chine, puis avec la Russie, qui a mis la lutte pour le Pacifique à l'ordre du jour de la politique de toutes les puissances. Il nous faut donc tout d'abord e.vpliquer en quelques mots quelles étaient, sur le Pacifique, les positions et les ambitions du Japon et de la Russie.
