REIS, Célia. The Extradition from Macau to China in the early twentieth century: Colonial practices between affirmation. []. , 48, pp.123-137. ISSN 1645-9199.

This article analyzes the extradition from Macau to China, which was included the Treaty signed in 1887; however, it was based more in ‘custom’ than in legally defined processes. This question integrated the difficult relationship between Macau and China and the xenophobic movements; because of that, some of the extradition processes assumed a political character. In response to pressure, the Portuguese authorities sought to implement new rules. However, the interference from multiple authorities, combined with that anti-Portuguese action, led to more refuses. Simultaneously, we find a division of the Portuguese authorities, between the affirmation of Portuguese sovereignty by deciding on extradition or the granting of priority to an agreement that would allow the delineation of space.
