Explore how colonies shape an empire’s economy and future .
This volume surveys the British Empire’s colonies and self‑governing dominions, explaining how wealth is created from natural resources, manufacturing, and trade, and how population patterns influence policy and progress.
This edition distills the author’s analysis of where different colonial groups stand in wealth, population, and development. It discusses emigration, labor, and the long arc from resource extraction to manufacturing and shipping, with attention to both self‑government and imperial administration. It clarifies how geography, culture, and policy interact to shape economic growth across the empire.- How colonies develop from resource-based economies toward manufacturing and trade
- The roles of self‑governing colonies, protectorates, and Crown colonies in empire economics
- Population patterns, labor forces, and immigration within the colonial world
