About this book

"The wellbeing and development of peoples not yet able to stand by themselves, form a sacred Trust of Civilisation." -The Covenant of the League of Nations, Article 22 (1924) The Dual Mandate in British Tropical Africa (1922) by Frederick Lugard was written as a guide to British administrators in colonized Africa. Lugard's experience as governor of Nigeria among other colonial and African experiences made him an authority on British colonialism. His writing provided guidance for the colonies' governance using indirect rule and touted the spread of Christianity. He also promoted an increasing commerce through exports and curbing slave trade. This work is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand colonialism of this era through a primary source document.

Unconquered States: Non-European Powers in the Imperial Age
In the heyday of empire, most of the world was ruled, directly or indirectly, by the European powers. <em>Unconquered States</em> explores the struggles for sovereignty of the few nominally independent non-Western states in the imperial age. It examines the ways in which countries such as China, Ethiopia, Japan, the Ottoman Empire, Persia, and Siam managed to keep European imperialism at bay, whereas others, such as Hawai'i, Korea, Madagascar, Morocco, and Tonga, long struggled, but ultimately failed, to maintain their sovereignty. <p/>The chapters in this book address four major aspects of the relations these countries had with the Western imperial powers: armed conflict and military reform, unequal treaties and capitulations, diplomatic encounters, and royal diplomacy. Bringing together scholars from five continents, this book provides the first comprehensive global history of the engagement of the independent non-European states with the European empires, reshaping our understanding of sovereignty, territoriality, and hierarchy in the modern world order.
