"The Chinese Exclusion Act" by New York Chamber of Commerce is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This publication presents a report and resolutions regarding the Chinese Exclusion Act, reflecting the views and sentiments of the Chamber of Commerce in New York as they navigate the socio-political climate aimed at Chinese immigration. The work examines the implications of the Exclusion Act on American commerce, public opinion, and bilateral relationships with China. The book outlines the various events leading up to the passage of the Chinese Exclusion Act, describing how Chinese immigration became a contentious issue in America following the 1848 California Gold Rush. It highlights the economic benefits that Chinese laborers brought to the country while also addressing the growing animosity from certain factions of society who perceived them as a threat to American jobs and culture. The report critically analyzes the motivations behind the Exclusion Act, discusses its ramifications on U.S.-China relations, and emphasizes the need for a diplomatic approach to restoring goodwill between the nations. Through its focus on economic interests, humanitarian principles, and geopolitical strategies, the report ultimately advocates for a reevaluation of policies that undermine mutual cooperation and respect.
