The Extraterritoriality Conference was an attempt by the Beiyang government to abolish extraterritoriality in China through diplomatic channels.
The Beiyang government diplomacy reflected in this conference was a reformative diplomacy of “treaty revision.” Under the circumstances, given that China did not have enough power to completely abolish extraterritoriality, “treaty revision” was a practical choice.
Though the Beiyang government failed to realize its original goals, the principles of Sino-foreign relations set by the conference laid a legal foundation for the complete abolition of the unequal treaties later on.
