How did the major European imperial powers and indigenous populations experience imperialism and colonisation in the period 18801960? In this richlyillustrated comparative account, Robin Butlin provides a comprehensive overview of the experiences of individual European imperial powers British, French, Dutch, Spanish, Portuguese, Belgian, German and Italian and the reactions of indigenous peoples. He explores the complex processes and discourses of colonialism, conquest and resistance from the height of empire through to decolonisation and sets these within the dynamics of the globalisation of political and economic power systems. He sheds new light on variations in the timing, nature and locations of European colonisations and on key themes such as exploration and geographical knowledge; maps and mapping; demographics; land seizure and environmental modification; transport and communications; and resistance and independence movements. In so doing, he makes a major contribution to our understanding of colonisation and the end of empire.
