Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Colonial Policy: 1783 1915 When we speak of Britain's Colonial policy a critic might at once Object that Great Britain has never had a Colonial policy. By sheer good fortune, it might be maintained, she stumbled into possession Of fertile places in various parts Of the earth and has succeeded in retaining them. There is a certain measure Of truth in this con tention. The British Empire is undoubtedly due to the political genius, the enterprise, the inde pendent spirit and the initiative of individuals, rather than to the constant and enlightened pursuit of a definite goal by the British Govern ment. Nevertheless, as we view it, the history 'of Great Britain's Colonial policy since 1783 is the history of an evolutionary process in Which there are three marked stages. During the first period the mother country, disillusioned and disappointed, left the entire control of the Colonies nominally to the Secretary of State charged With their administration, in reality to the permanent Officials in the Colonial, Ofiice. Thus ruled from Downing Street, they came to resent the interference Of Mr. -mother Country' in their concerns, and clamoured for Responsible Government as the only permanent remedy of their political, economic and social disorders.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of British Colonial Policy In spite of all that has been recently written on the South African question, I am not without hopes that the portion of this book relating to it may be of some slight use. The subject has been generally approached either from the point of View of the experienced observer on the spot or of the partisan of some particular policy; my aim has been to bring out from the Parliamentary Papers how largely the present is the heritage of the past. Pace Mr H. M. Stanley, it does not follow that because we are convinced that Great Britain must remain paramount in South Africa, we need therefore refuse any sympathy to Dutch grievances, which are largely due to the mistakes and hesitations of English statesmen in the past. In a volume which deals with a long period of time and many scattered events, there are doubtless mistakes and inaccuracies. For such I would pray pardon in anticipation.

Book Synopsis British Colonial Policy by : George Louis Beer
Download or read book British Colonial Policy written by George Louis Beer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Colonial Policy: 1754 1765 The matter contained in this essay was collected in the course of an extensive study of the old British colonial system. At the outset of the investigation, more attention was paid to the development of the eighteenth, than to that of the preceding century; but as the work progressed, the necessity of treating the origins and establishment of the system on a larger scale became patent. Consequently, although the material for the eighteenth century was to a great extent elaborated, it appeared advisable to defer its publication until the preceding age could be more carefully investigated. As, however, it was decided at the same time to treat the entire subject apart from the controversies of the American Revolution, there exists no valid reason to refrain from publishing the results of the study of the transitional years from 1754 to 1765. The subject of the work, its exact scope and limits, are clearly indicated by the title. It is a study of British policy during the critical period of the old Empire. Thus the essay belongs distinctly to the domain of British history; but to the extent that English and American development were then inseparable, it also, but more indirectly, falls within the field occupied by American history. The focus of interest is, however, the British Empire, and not the rise of the American Nation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Britain and Her Colonies Questions of colonial policy and of colonial empire have recently occupied the attention of public men in England more than at any previous time. This has been shown by discussions in Parliament and in the press, and by the Reports of Committees of the House of Commons. Some of the topics brought most prominently into View have been the cost, defence, and advantages or disadvantages of colonies, the commercial policy of the chief dependencies of the Empire, as at variance with that of England, the relations which those great Commonwealths now sustain towards this country and towards each other, and what changes, if any, should be effected in such relations. The interest so generally, shown in questions of such importance to the various members of the Empire has suggested this treatise.

This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Commercial Policy of the British Colonies and the McKinley Tariff In 1846 extreme discontent was manifested by a large part of the population. In the beginning of 1 852 their affections, which had appeared to be hopelessly alienated, had been regained, and all classes joined in evincing their attachment to the British Crown and to the institutions under which they lived the hate ful animosities and rancour which had been created by civil war and differences of national origin had almost disappeared, and the party divisions which still existed were not greater than those usually to be found in all free governments. A system of con stitutional government copied from our own had also been brought into full Operation, and was universally acquiesced in. An equally marked improvement had taken place in the material prosperity of the Province, as was shown by the fact that its credit in the London Stock Exchange had risen from a somewhat low level, and was fully as high as that of the United States. I will only add that I beg you to believe me your very sincere and earnest friend and well-wisher. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonial Policies of the United States I may perhaps mitigate my presumption in publishing a foreword to this book by saying that I had some small part in encouraging Colonel Roosevelt to write it. He needed some urging. For while diflidence is not generally supposed to be the badge of those who bear the Roosevelt name, the Colonel seemed far more terrified by the idea of writing a book about his experience as a colonial governor than he had been by all the wild animals that he has chased across Asia and Africa. Last spring he was still modestly over come with doubts and hesitations. For though he had written the book and had used the material success fully in a series of lectures before a British audience, he still felt the need of a literary chaperon before he could commit himself to the publication of a book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reorganization of the British Empire Within a short time a remarkable change has come over public opinion in the British Isles themselves. Twenty years ago it almost seemed as if Great Britain was. Ready voluntarily to throw away her vast colonial empire. A, whole school of politicians favored the idea, and seemed -to have gained the public ear. The Times, supposed to re ect public opinion, claimed that England was paying too high a price for enjoying the luxury of colonial loyalty, and' warned the colonies to prepare for the separation that was inevitable.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from British America, Vol. 1 of 2 Every thing convinced me that the British Empire in North America was imperfectly known; and, con sequently, that the just value of that vast territory was not understood. I was also convinced that nearly all the errors committed in treating with foreign powers concerning His Majesty's colonies, as well as all the blunders which have occurred in our colonial policy, have been the results of the meagre inform ation possessed by our government, and not, accord ing to a prevalent opinion, the effect of intentional neglect on the part of His Majesty's ministers.

Book Synopsis The Great Alternative by : Spenser Wilkinson
Download or read book The Great Alternative written by Spenser Wilkinson and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Alternative: A Plea for a National Policy An alternative is defined by Dr. Johnson as "the choice given of two things, so that if one be rejected, the other must be taken." The Great Alternative is such a choice given to England; a choice between the first place among the nations of the world and the last; between the leadership of the human race and the loss of Empire and of all but the shadow of independence. The idea set forth in this book is that England has the choice between these two extremes, with no middle course open to her. This idea is not a soothing companion. If it takes possession of an Englishman it will never let him rest. The Englishman, therefore, who values his peace of mind must, if possible, avoid it; let him by no means subject himself to the Influence of the following pages, for it pervades them, and if I have done my work well he will not escape the infection. In revising the book for a new edition I hope to have made the argument clearer by grouping the chapters Into books. My idea is that British policy must be based upon the realities of the world which it is the business of history to grasp.
