Description
Explore the intellectual foundations of British imperialism through this scholarly examination of the Colonial Society's early members and mid-Victorian pro-imperial thought. Empire as the Triumph of Theory investigates the origins of New Imperialism by analysing over two hundred founding members of the Colonial Society, established in 1868 and now known as the Royal Commonwealth Society. This meticulously researched work traces how Victorian intellectuals developed a world-historical mission for the British Empire, examining the political constituencies and ideological movements that shaped imperial policy during a transformative period. Published by Routledge as part of the Cass Series on British Foreign and Colonial Policy, the book offers historians and scholars a detailed exploration of the theoretical underpinnings that drove late nineteenth-century imperial expansion and Britain's global influence.
