Race and Empire

Download or read book Race and Empire written by Jane Samson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new seminar study provides an introduction to the intricate and far-reaching relationship between European attitudes toward racial difference and European imperial expansion. By concentrating on the issue of race this book takes a very different approach to political and economic studies of imperialism. It transcends the current tendency to separate Europe's response to non-Europeans, and vice-versa, into distinct fields of study. This text is suitable for undergraduate courses in imperial history.
