Doctrines Of Imperialism by A. P. Thornton

"In a new appraisal of a highly controversial topic, Professor Thorton sets out the beliefs that underlie the doctrines of power, profit and civilization, all of which have animated and still animate the instinctive human activity known as imperialism. "Imperialism" is the category that has been allocated by social analysts to a process they normaly condemn. At its heart is the image of dominance, of power asserted - and power is neither used nor witnessed without emotion. Imperialism is therefore more often the name of the emotion that reacts to a series of events than a description of the events themselves. "Colonialism", which is imperialism seen from below, illustrates this point. Why this should be so is the subject of DOCTRINES OF IMPERIALISM"- Publisher.
