Download or read book Imperial Defence written by Greg Kennedy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-11-21 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new collection of essays, from leading British and Canadian scholars, presents an excellent insight into the strategic thinking of the British Empire. It defines the main areas of the strategic decision-making process that was known as 'Imperial Defence'. The theme is one of imperial defence and defence of empire, so chapters will be historiographical in nature, discussing the major features of each key component of imperial defence, areas of agreement and disagreement in the existing literature on critical interpretations, introducing key individuals and positions and commenting on the appropriateness of existing studies, as well as identifying a raft of new directions for future research.

Book Synopsis British Imperial Air Power by : Alex M Spencer
Download or read book British Imperial Air Power written by Alex M Spencer and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2020-06-15 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Imperial Air Power examines the air defense of Australia and New Zealand during the interwar period. It also demonstrates the difficulty of applying new military aviation technology to the defense of the global Empire and provides insight into the nature of the political relationship between the Pacific Dominions and Britain. Following World War I, both Dominions sought greater independence in defense and foreign policy. Public aversion to military matters and the economic dislocation resulting from the war and later the Depression left little money that could be provided for their respective air forces. As a result, the Empire’s air services spent the entire interwar period attempting to create a strategy in the face of these handicaps. In order to survive, the British Empire’s military air forces offered themselves as a practical and economical third option in the defense of Britain’s global Empire, intending to replace the Royal Navy and British Army as the traditional pillars of imperial defense.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knitting together the empire was a class of men, a body of opinion, a 'defence community' of military, naval and colonial officials drawn together by a common belief that the empire was in such a poor state of defence as to present a standing temptation to an enemy. They also limited confidence in the ability of a post-1867 democracy to conduct an effective defence, foreign or imperial policy. The roots of these beliefs lay in their common experience in the empire, in war and in the several defence investigations and war scares that occurred between the Crimean War and the Balkan Crisis of 1878. These men demanded and got a much greater input into policy making in this period than has been hitherto recognized. Indeed, at crucial times in this period, the defence community, whose most visible members were Bartle Frere and Lord Lytton, conducted policy in defiance of the wishes of their legitimate masters. What follows, therefore, is an investigation into the idea that the expansion of empire in the period 1874-1886 was powered more by fears for its security than by a desire for gain or a mission to do good. As Gallagher and Robinson argued, there was a fixation in the official mind over the security of the routes to India and it was crisis in Egypt that dragged Britain into African empire as a result. This book argues that only this can explain the paradox that the Liberal government of 1880-86, elected on an anti-imperial platform, expanded the empire more than the Conservative government 1874-80, which stood on a pro-imperial platform.
