AbstractUsing Shanghai as a type site and considering the activity of Ernest Major, founder of Shenbao, the city's first newspaper, it can be argued that the foreign enclaves in China greatly advanced the development of a Chinese public sphere. in the protected enclaves Chinese were able to express and evaluate opinions and to develop enterprises independent of government control and restriction. Unfortunately nationalism would, in the 1920's-30's, lead modernizing Chinese intellectuals to oppose extraterritoriality and thus deny themselves of the institutions that made their existence possible.
