Book The Governance of Empire  Classic Reprint

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Governance of Empire The object of presenting this work to the public is twofold. Firstly, as a colonial, my desire is to present a colonial view of the imperial idea, and, secondly, to endeavour to arouse among my countrymen, in the United Kingdom especially, a greater interest and pride in the Empire beyond the seas. My critics may point to the number of able works bearing directly or indirectly upon the British Empire which have been published within recent years, and it may even be said that I am repeating an oft-told tale, that many of the suggestions which I now put forward, with all due deference to these self-same critics, have been made before. My reply is, The thing that hath been, is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done; and there is no new thing under the sun (eccles. I.

Book The Government of the British Empire  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Government of the British Empire Classic Reprint written by Edward Jenks and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Government of the British Empire It is, perhaps, needless to say, that this book is not intended to compete with the standard works on the Constitution which have been produced by eminent writers, such as the late Sir William Anson, the late Bishop Stubbs, or Professor Dicey, happily still with us. Still less does it claim to rival the classical monographs on the various aspects of the Constitution which are the work of experts in the strict sense. It is written only in the hope that those who have not yet the leisure, or who have not yet arrived at the age, to appreciate these larger works, will be enabled by it to look forward to that advantage at a later date. And the immediate prospect of a largely increased electorate, combined with the great stimulus of interest in problems of government produced by the war, would seem to make that hope reasonable. For the many defects of the book, the writer will not apologize; for lie knows that critics best able to appreciate the difficulty of writing it, will be the readiest to forgive them. He will merely deprecate the suggestion that the book is a "precis" of larger treatises. So far as it goes, it is original both in plan and execution, and from first-hand material. For neither plan nor execution is any one but the writer responsible. Nevertheless, it is the waiter's keen pleasure, as well as his bounden duty, to tender his grateful thanks to those acquaintances and friends who have been ungrudging with their help on the matters upon which he has appealed to them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Empire on the Anvil: Being Suggestions and Data for the Future Government of the British Empire By the masses, but gathering strength with improved intercommunications and the growing recognition of essential mutual interests. The military assis tance, freely offered in the Sudan in 1885 and in South Africa in 1899 - 1902, supplied an object lesson alike of the strong sentiment of our fellow subjects overseas and of their military spirit, which powerfully appealed to the public imagination. Thus, in the years before the bursting of the storm, forces have come into play which have worked in the direction of closer political interchange and of tentative organisation for defence. Other forces of local origin have brought about the federation of two important groups of contiguous Colonies and may have helped to disseminate the federal idea.

Book The Reorganization of the British Empire  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Reorganization of the British Empire Classic Reprint written by George R. Parkin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reorganization of the British Empire It is perhaps hard for Americans, imbued with traditions of the struggle by which their country threw off the yoke of Jan oppressive English Government, to understand how completely, and for what strong reasons, the relations between Great Britain and her present colonies are those of profound sympathy and warm affection. The mother' land regards with natural pride the energy which is planting free political' institutions and extending civilization in so many quarters of the globe; which is opening -up such vast areas of virgin soil for British occupation, and which, by so doing, is preparing for her a solution of'the difficult problem pressing upon her at home from, dense population and limited land - a solution such as no other of the overcrowded nations of Europe can hope for. To the richness of her own past the colonies open a boundless vista of hope for the future. The colonies, on the other hand, feel equally proud of their unbroken connection with the grand traditions of the mother land. Little has occurred to mar the strength of this sentimental attachment. They have enjoyed the advantages of being members of a great empire without, as yet, bearing the severer weight of its burdens. All the perfect freedom of self-government for which they have asked has been ungrudgingly allowed. The population which is flowing into their waste lands comes chiefly from the mother country not driven out by religious persecution or political tyranny, but the over flow of a fecund race, impelled by the spirit of enterprise, or in search of the larger breathing-space of new continents. In almost every case they come to strengthen the loyalty of the colony. The emigrant is encouraged or even assisted in leaving the old Britain; he is heartily welcomed in the new Britain beyond the seas. For generations afterwards his descendants speak of going home without feeling it necessary to explain that by home they mean England, Scotland or Ireland. Great Britain's new colonial policy has thus given a' new cohesion to the empire. Even in the case of a distinct race, with strong race instincts, it has achieved a marked success. French-canadians are not only con tent with their political condition, but warmly loyal to British connection. Their greatest statesman emphasized, but scarcely exaggerated, this atti tude of mind when he described himself as an Englishman speaking French. So high an authority as Cardinal Manning told me not long since that F rench-canadian bishops and clergy had over and over again assured him that their people were practically a unit in preferring British to French connection. There is no doubt that in respect of either religious freedom or political security the preference is justified. The lapse of years bring into stronger relief the truth of Montalembert's remark, that the Frenchmen of Canada had gained under British rule a freedom which the Frenchmen of France never knew.

The difficulties that stand in the way of forming such an incorporating organ of the life of the peoples of the British Empire are greater than those that attended the formation of any similar union now known to the world. The successful federation of the United States of America, the federation of the provinces of Canada, of the states of Australia, and of the provinces of South Africa, may, indeed, encourage us to seek for some practicable scheme of common government, consistent with the varying facts and circumstances of our life; but in the task of framing such a scheme there is little help, beyond the stimulus of example, to be got from the federal unions already in exist ence either within or without the limits of the Empire. The task of devising them was of a totally different kind from ours, and vastly less complicated in its character and conditions.

The changing relations of these communities with the central government often illustrate and illuminate the general course of history in a remarkable manner. The growth, the spread, the prosperity and the decline of the towns, form a momentous element in the annals of the Roman empire. Not only did Rome civilise the West in her own manner, using the Italian town pattern as the unit of her administration, but she enabled the Greek polis to complete its conquest of the East, and allowed it the same place in the government of the Eastern section of her dominions.
