Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fate of the newly independent nation is absorbing the attention of statesmen and scholars. This comprehensive study of Ceylon since its independence in 1947 provides a case study of the fundamental issues in these new Asian and African nations. Mr. Wriggins, who spent two years in Ceylon, presents the full historic, economic, political, and social background. He discusses the current political situation in Ceylon, the effect of universal franchise, the increasing communal disorders, the resulting dilemma of representative government, the search for an adequate foreign policy. His findings, which are based on extensive on-the-spot research, illuminate the crucial problem of political change. Originally published in 1960.

Download or read book Ceylon the Path to Independence written by Sir Charles Joseph Jeffries and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a tale not of two cities, but of two islands, Britain and Ceylon: both small as countries go, both close to, but separated by narrow seas from, great continents. Both have been, in their time, parts of the colonial empires of alien powers; both have emerged from colonial status to independence. Both are lands of physical beauty in which men have found it good to live. To overstress the parallels between the two countries would be merely fanciful, yet they are not without practical significance. If the Ceylonese are painfully conscious, in these days, of the difficulties involved in combining the diverse elements of their island's population into a cohesive national unit, they may profitably reflect that the British themselves, whose national unity is proverbial, have had to go through all this in the past. - Introduction.
