Abstract: The Kailuan coal mines were among the largest and most lucrative foreign enterprises in late Qing and Republican China. From their founding in 1878 through 1901, when British capital secured control of the mines, to the labor struggles and warlord battles of the 1920s, the depression of the 1930s, the Japanese takeover of the mines in the late 1930s, and the inflation-wracked civil war that preceded the founding of the People's Republic, Kailuan was a crucible of strife.
