Autor: J. A. Mangan AnotaceThis volume is designed to explore the intellectual, cultural and technical aspects of imperialism in the era of European world supremacy. The intention of the authors is to present a multi-disciplinary, cross-cultural study and thus the economic, political and military dimensions of imperialism are not ignored. This book is intended as a companion volume to "Benefits Bestowed". It studies education, youth organizations and patriotic festivals, emigration, a variety of religious issues, elite formation and the influence of examination boards, as well as confronting aspects of the education, socialization and liberation of women. British imperial territories from the West Indies to Malaysia, Canada, New Zealand and India are discussed. Changing racial attitudes during the early 19th century through the 20th century are examined: the assimilationist ideas of the early 19th century which gave way to coarser racial concepts later in the century and to a cultural relativism in the 20th century. The contribution of Christian missionaries to educational processes, their relationship with the imperial authorities, and the effect that missionaries, youth organizations and other educational agencies may have had on the role of women are also considered.
