Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Broad Stone of Empire, Vol. 1: Problems of Crown Colony Administration With Records of Personal Experience It is getting to be generally recognised that the accepted classification of the constituent elements of the British Empire in three groups, - the United Kingdom, the Colonies and India, - is becoming obsolete. The laws of political and economic geography demand a more scientific classification in accordance with the natural factors of distinction between the temperate zones and the tropics, these factors having already determined a political cleavage between two groups of colonies under the designation of self-governing and Crown colonies.

Download or read book The Broad Stone of Empire Volume 2 written by Charles Bruce and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1910 with total page 588 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Charles Bruce (1836-1920) was a civil servant and colonial administrator who served for thirty-six years in various administrative and governing roles in Mauritius, Sri Lanka, the West Indies and Guyana. These volumes, first published in 1910, contain Bruce's discussions of the major problems of colonial administration. He provides a detailed survey of the development of national and colonial policy from 1815 to 1868 and imperial policy from 1868 to 1872, illustrating the historical context of late nineteenth-century colonial administration. Bruce then discusses in detail topics of importance to colonial administrators, including Crown law, labour and health, illustrating solutions to problems from his considerable experience. These volumes were intended as a reference work for students of colonial administration, and provide a wealth of information on the organisation and administration of British colonies in the nineteenth century. Volume 2 contains his discussion of education, communications, the fiscal system and commerce.

Book The British Empire  2 volumes

Download or read book The British Empire 2 volumes written by Mark Doyle and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2018-06-29 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential starting point for anyone wanting to learn about life in the largest empire in history, this two-volume work encapsulates the imperial experience from the 16th–21st centuries. From early sixteenth-century explorations to the handover of Hong Kong in 1997, the British Empire controlled outposts on every continent, spreading its people and ideas across the globe and profiting mightily in the process. The present state of our world—from its increasing interconnectedness to its vast inequalities and from the successful democracies of North America to the troubled regimes of Africa and the Middle East—can be traced, in large part, to the way in which Great Britain expanded and controlled its empire. The British Empire: A Historical Encyclopedia addresses a broader range of topics than do most other surveys of the empire, covering not only major political and military developments but also topics that have only recently come to serious scholarly attention, such as women's and gender history, art and architecture, indigenous histories and perspectives, and the construction of colonial knowledge and ideologies. By going beyond the "headline" events of the British Empire, this captivating work communicates the British imperial experience in its totality.

Book Triumph of the Expert

    Book Details:
  • Author : Joseph Morgan Hodge
  • Publisher : Ohio University Press
  • Release : 2007-02-15
  • ISBN : 0821442260
  • Pages : 417 pages

Download or read book Triumph of the Expert written by Joseph Morgan Hodge and published by Ohio University Press. This book was released on 2007-02-15 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most striking feature of British colonialism in the twentieth century was the confidence it expressed in the use of science and expertise, especially when joined with the new bureaucratic capacities of the state, to develop natural and human resources of the empire. Triumph of the Expert is a history of British colonial doctrine and its contribution to the emergence of rural development and environmental policies in the late colonial and postcolonial period. Joseph Morgan Hodge examines the way that development as a framework of ideas and institutional practices emerged out of the strategic engagement between science and the state at the climax of the British Empire. Hodge looks intently at the structural constraints, bureaucratic fissures, and contradictory imperatives that beset and ultimately overwhelmed the late colonial development mission in sub-Saharan Africa, south and southeast Asia, and the Caribbean. Triumph of the Expert seeks to understand the quandaries that led up to the important transformation in British imperial thought and practice and the intellectual and administrative legacies it left behind.

Book Science  race relations and resistance

Download or read book Science race relations and resistance written by Douglas A. Lorimer and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By exploring the dimensions of race, race relations and resistance, this book offers a new account of the British Empire’s greatest failure and its most disturbing legacy. Using a wide range of published and archival sources, this study of racial discourse from 1870 to 1914 argues that race, then as now, was a contested territory within the metropolitan culture. Based on a wide range of published and archival sources, this book uncovers the conflicting opinions that characterised late Victorian and Edwardian discourse on the ‘colour question’. It offers a revisionist account of race in science, and provides original studies of the invention of the language of race relations and of resistance to race-thinking led by radical abolitionists and persons of Asian and African descent living in the United Kingdom. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of race, colonialism and culture, and to a readership interested in the history of science and race, anti-slavery and humanitarian movements, and the roots of anti-racist resistance.
