Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This reader of 18 previously published historical essays (all drawn from the 1990s) focuses on the relationship between Pacific history and the British Empire. The first set of papers looks at cultural contact brought about by exploration and trade, focusing on questions of the economy, science, and the nature of British collection of artifacts. Other articles concentrate more on the process of colonization, discussing such subjects as the origins of the first penal settlements in Australia and the impact of colonization on native peoples in Australia, New Zealand, and elsewhere. The final essays explore issues of culture, gender, and the environment. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "[Book title] ranges over the broad expanse of Oceania to reconstruct the history of "blackbirding" (slave trading) in the region. It examines the role of U.S. citizens (many of them ex-slaveholders and ex-confederates) in the trade and its roots in Civil War dislocations. What unfolds is a dramatic tale of unfree labor, conflicts between formal and informal empire, white supremacy, threats to sovereignty in Hawaii, the origins of a White Australian policy, and the rise of Japan as a Pacific power and putative protector."--Back cover.

Download or read book Australian Imperialism written by Erik Paul and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his critical study of Australian imperialism, Erik Paul analyses the making, character and contours of the geopolitical state from the time of the British invasion and colonisation to the present, expanding the country’s continental political and economic power. War is the crucible for its hegemonic power, nationalism, and politics. The book exposes and dissects capitalist imperialism to control and manage a growing population and to impose the grand strategy of a US client state. The geopolitics in the partitioning of the earth and the exploitation of people and the biosphere continue to create major conflict, inequality, and human suffering. Australia plays an important role in the intensification of the struggle among major powers and in the outcome of an expanding global ecological and hegemonic crisis. But the existing Australian state of exception constitutes a major obstacle to a reconciliation with China and to a peaceful regional and world order.
