- W2492618044 abstract "In the immediate postwar period, threats of racial and gender disorder, and of the sinister power that both Chinese men and degenerate white women could hold over other white Britons, were at the center of the judicial, journalistic, and literary discussions of Chinatown. This refocusing of attention on Chinese men and their activities in London was neither sudden nor inevitable, but evolved over a series of highly visible court cases. The direst threat attributed to Chinese men emerged not from their opium use and gambling, activities that had been so central to earlier portrayals, but from their alleged encouragement of West End debauchery and their co-optation of white women into their schemes. Social contact between white women and the racial other had been a longstanding concern in the empire, but in the interwar period, it became an increasingly volatile issue in London.1 Court trials, press reports, and popular fiction all helped popularize the fear that corrupted white women were helping to forge sinister connections between the decadence and wealth of white West Enders and the vice of Chinatown. The conflation of opium and cocaine into a sinister “dope” culture controlled by Chinese men and their female agents proved to be an especially potent justification for judicial intervention and public scandal-mongering." @default.
