| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Beginning with the post-Napoleonic era, Colonial Empires and Armies presents the dramatic story of Europe's empire building, in which the military agents of European imperialism met the peoples of the rest of the world in armed conflict. V.G. Kiernan examines the manner in which the wars were conducted and their impact not only on the conquered societies but also on the societies which launched them. Kiernan addresses the ideology of empire -- the concept of the civilizing mission, the triumph of civilization over barbarism -- that the missionary organizations ardently supported. In reality, material profit was the prime motive, and he argues that colonialists and their propagandists did much to work up the nationalist rivalries and hatred which exploded in World War I. Interweaving brilliant sketches of imperial and colonial life with analysis of the changing balance of economic and political power, Kiernan concludes by describing how the colonial liberation movements turned the tables in the aftermath of World War II"- |
