- How to relate with a colonial power on its shore: Macau in the Chinese foreign policy, 1949-1965Publication . Fernandes, Moisés SilvaWith the imminent takeover of power by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in mainland China in 1949, Portuguese decision-makers in Macau and Portugal feared the collapse of the tony enclave, and thus the beginning of the end of the Portuguese Empire. However, this bleak scenario did not materialise. The aim of this paper is to analyse the reasons behind this longevity - mainly, during the first decade-and-a-half of Mao Zedong's regime, when the leadership of the People's Republic of China (PRC) held officially to a rather strong revolutionary, anti-colonialist and anti-imperialist posture.
