Description

This foundational historical study, originally published in 1944, examines British colonial theories spanning nearly three centuries of imperial expansion and contraction. The volume traces the evolution of colonial thought from the establishment of overseas territories through the American Revolution, the restructuring of the second Empire, and the emergence of free trade policies. Rather than focusing on individual figures, the work analyses the substantive ideas that shaped British attitudes toward colonial acquisition and administration, exploring both the perceived advantages and disadvantages of maintaining overseas possessions for the mother country. Essential for understanding the intellectual foundations of the British Commonwealth of Nations and the economic theories that drove imperial policy during a transformative period in global history.

Key Features

Covers 280 years of British colonial theory from 1570 through 1850, capturing the evolution of imperial economic thinking.

Examines the period following the American Revolution and the subsequent readjustments to colonial policy in the second Empire.

Focuses on ideas and theories rather than biographical accounts, providing a conceptual history of British colonialism.

Analyses both the perceived advantages and disadvantages of overseas colonies to the British mother country.

Traces the emergence of free trade ideology and its impact on traditional colonial theories and practice.

Routledge Revivals edition preserves this classic 1944 study for contemporary scholars of imperial history and economic theory.
