Description

Explore the complex relationship between morality and power in this academic study by Routledge. Character, Ethics and Economics: British Debates on Empire, 1860-1914 investigates how the concept of character served as a moral marker during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book examines the specific character talk used to shape the identity of elite Britons. It looks at how these ideas were used to argue that empire was a force for good, providing both moral and material justifications to audiences in Britain and its conquered territories. Readers will gain insight into the debates of the era, including the perspectives of radical thinkers who questioned imperialist arguments. This work provides a detailed look at the intellectual landscape of the British Empire during a period of significant change and debate.
