Excerpt: ...of British subjects by the British THE RAJAH ON A PROTECTORATE 205 Government is a question between themselves; it can be of no good to the Government of Sarawak, and in no way concerns it. Sarawak is an independent native state ruled by an Englishman with the knowledge and sanction of the British Government and nation for fifteen years. The native state so ruled has, we contend, been acknowledged by the British Government, and if an objection should be now made to the ruler on the score of his allegiance, or any other, it might affect his right to the position, but it could not affect the right of the people of Sarawak to independence and self-government. The challenge has often been given, and the only consequence, supposing the proposition established, " that a British subject could not rule a foreign people consistently with his allegiance," would be personal to him. It would deprive him of the position or render a change of designation requisite. As regards the state of Sarawak in relation to England, it cannot in any way touch it. 'Again, England has afforded the highest degree of encouragement to the Government of Sarawak by word and deed. She now evades her obligations, and leaves the native state without support; and a small native state, isolated as Sarawak now is, without countenance, without help, and without formal recognition or protection, cannot stand alone amid the advancement of European nations and the growing interests of commerce. Every native state must shortly adhere or belong to a European Power. It is no question of right but of necessity, for neighbouring states, one weak and the other strong, cannot exist in contact without the weaker being the friend or the foe of the stronger--a faithful ally, or the...

Download or read book Power and Prowess written by JH Walker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-09-02 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A significant reinterpretation of Sarawak history, Power and Prowess explores the network of power, economic and ritual relationships that developed on the northwest coast of Borneo in the mid-nineteenth century, from which a coalition led by James Brooke established the state of Sarawak. Where many authors placed Brooke in the context of nineteenth century British imperialism, this study perceives him in the context of Bornean cultures and political economies. Brooke emerges from the historical record as a 'man of prowess', with the author identifying important ritual sources of Brooke's power among Malays, Bidayuh and Ibans, sources which derived from and expressed indigenous cultural traditions about fertility, health and status. Drawing on conceptual frameworks from political science, as well as recent southeast Asian historiography, Power and Prowess offers a detailed political history of the period and new interpretations of Brooke's career. This study also retrieves from the historical sources previously concealed narratives which reflect the interests, priorities and activities of Sarawak people themselves. J.H. WALKER lectures in political science at the University of New South Wales at the Australian Defence Force Academy.

Book excerpt: The facts of variability, of the struggle for existence, of adaptation to conditions, were notorious enough; but none of us had suspected that the road to the heart of the species problem lay through them, until Darwin and Wallace dispelled the darkness.T H Huxley (1887). Darwin is one of the most famous scientists in history. But he was not alone. Comparatively forgotten, Wallace independently discovered evolution by natural selection in Southeast Asia. This book is based on the most thorough research ever conducted on Wallace's voyage. Closely connected, but worlds apart, Darwin and Wallace's stories hold many surprises. Did Darwin really keep his theory a secret for twenty years? Did he plagiarise Wallace? Were their theories really the same? How did Wallace hit on the solution, and on which island? This book reveals for the first time the true story of Darwin, Wallace and the discovery that would change our understanding of life on Earth forever.
