Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a noteworthy collection of essays that explores the various methods used by European nations to colonize non-European continents. The author traces the history of European colonialism from its beginnings in the 16th century to its eventual decline in the 20th century. The author argues that there were three main types of European colonies: immigration colonies, plantation colonies, and trade settlements. Immigration colonies were characterized by the large-scale migration of European settlers to a new territory. Plantation colonies were based on the exploitation of indigenous labor to produce cash crops for export. Trade settlements were established primarily for the purpose of trading with indigenous peoples. The author provides numerous examples of each type of colony and discusses the economic, social, and political implications of each. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of colonialism and its impact on the world. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
