Book Settler Anxiety at the Outposts of Empire

Download or read book Settler Anxiety at the Outposts of Empire written by Kenton Storey and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Indian Rebellion of 1857, fear of Indigenous uprisings spread across the British Empire and nibbled at the edges of settler societies. Publicly admitting to this anxiety, however, would have gone counter to Victorian notions of racial superiority. In Settler Anxiety at the Outposts of Empire Kenton Storey opens a window on this time by comparing newspaper coverage in the 1850s and 1860s in the colonies of New Zealand and Vancouver Island. Challenging the idea that there was a decline in the popularity of humanitarianism across the British Empire in the mid-nineteenth century, he demonstrates how government officials and newspaper editors appropriated humanitarian rhetoric as a flexible political language. Whereas humanitarianism had previously been used by Christian evangelists to promote Indigenous rights, during this period it became a popular means to justify the expansion of settlers’ access to land and to promote racial segregation, all while insisting on the “protection” of Indigenous peoples.

Book The Political Philosophy of Property Rights

Download or read book The Political Philosophy of Property Rights written by Lindsey Te Ata o Tu MacDonald and published by VDM Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This mongraph reasserts the primacy of property in political theorising. Arguing that the determination of property rights is part of the justification of the state, MacDonald notes the failure of much current philosophising to take account of this role when setting out the normative arguments for legitimate political authority. MacDonald criticises current philosophical definitions of property as a bundle-of-rights, arguing that for normative purposes, property is a right of exclusion in rem. Thereby MacDonald escapes the interminable moral and legal arguments over property - such as questions of Lockean labour theory, self-ownership, and indigenous historical injustice - that have dominated recent political philosophy. Instead, the book focuses on the failure of libertarian and liberal egalitarian theories of justice to produce a plausible account of both legitimate political authority's right to regulate property, and the principles upon which that regulation ought to occur. The book will be of interest to scholars of political philosophy and theory, especially those engaged in the contemporary ideas of justice, legitimacy and the justification of the state.

Book The Victorian Reinvention of Race

Download or read book The Victorian Reinvention of Race written by Edward Beasley and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-07-02 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In mid-Victorian England there were new racial categories based upon skin colour. The 'races' familiar to those in the modern west were invented and elaborated after the decline of faith in Biblical monogenesis in the early nineteenth century, and before the maturity of modern genetics in the middle of the twentieth. Not until the early nineteenth century would polygenetic and racialist theories win many adherents. But by the middle of the nineteenth century in England, racial categories were imposed upon humanity. How the idea of 'race' gained popularity in England at that time is the central focus of The Victorian Reinvention of Race: New Racisms and the Problem of Grouping in the Human Sciences. Scholars have linked this new racism to some very dodgy thinkers. The Victorian Reinvention of Race examines a more influential set of the era's writers and colonial officials, some French but most of them British. Attempting to do serious social analysis, these men oversimplified humanity into biologically-heritable, mentally and morally unequal, colour-based 'races'. Thinkers giving in to this racist temptation included Alexis de Tocqueville when he was writing on Algeria; Arthur de Gobineau (who influenced the Nazis); Walter Bagehot of The Economist; and Charles Darwin (whose Descent of Man was influenced by Bagehot). Victorians on Race also examines officials and thinkers (such as Tocqueville in Democracy in America, the Duke of Argyll, and Governor Gordon of Fiji) who exercised methodological care, doing the hard work of testing their categories against the evidence. They analyzed human groups without slipping into racial categorization. Author Edward Beasley examines the extent to which the Gobineau-Bagehot-Darwin way of thinking about race penetrated the minds of certain key colonial governors. He further explores the hardening of the rhetoric of race-prejudice in some quarters in England in the nineteenth century – the processes by which racism was first formed.
