| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study examined the policy-making process of the Open Door notes in 1899 and 1900. When Secretary of State John M. Hay drafted the notes, he depended upon brilliant and unique advisers. Among the most important persons were the historian Henry Adams, the Chinese scholar William W. Rockhill, the Chinese Imperial Maritime Customs official Alfred E. Hippisley. Beside those persons, women who participated in Henry Adams’s salon put a subtle influence upon the notes. This study reveals that women’s international network helped to create the Open Door diplomacy. Women’s anti-imperialism permeated in Henry Adams’s salon was shared with Eleanor Roosevelt. She was a regular member of the salon. Her pacifism spurred by fear of nuclear wars in the early days of the Post World War II era, led her to make the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and to insist upon the abolition of war.
