Excerpt from German Colonies: A Plea for the Native Races
The question of the retention by the Allies or the restoration to Germany of the colonies which the latter has lost, as an immediate consequence of her acts of unprovoked aggression in Europe, is one which will, of course, mainly be determined by the character of the peace eventually secured. Even if the statesmen of Europe and America find themselves at last in a position to dictate terms to Germany, there is a certain danger that they may fail to attach to this matter the import ance which rightly belongs to it.

Verkäuferbewertung 5 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex history of European colonialism, exploring the motivations, methods, and consequences of European expansion into the non-European world. The author examines the early colonial ventures of Spain, Portugal, Holland, and England, highlighting the ruthless methods and exploitative practices that characterized their interactions with indigenous populations. Particular attention is given to the contrasting approaches of the Dutch and English in Asia, with the Dutch establishing a system of strict monopoly and exclusion in the Spice Islands while the English, driven by commercial interests, eventually turned their attention to India. The rise of the British East India Company and the pivotal roles played by figures like Clive and Hastings in establishing British dominance are analyzed, along with the gradual shift towards a sense of responsibility and obligation towards the native populations under British rule. The book also delves into the horrors of the West African slave trade, tracing its origins and the involvement of various European nations. The author emphasizes the awakening of the British national conscience and the efforts of abolitionists like Wilberforce in bringing an end to this inhumane practice. By examining the historical context and contrasting approaches of different colonial powers, this book offers valuable insights into the evolution of European colonialism and its lasting impact on the world.
