The Routledge History of Western Empires is an all new volume focusing on the history of Western Empires in a comparative and thematic perspective. The 36 chapters by an international range of contributors, build on authors' original research to present case studies that are then broadened to examine general themes in the history of colonialism, thus providing grounded examples of important topics while opening out discussion to comparative and theoretical considerations.
Divided into six sections the volumes focuses on a number of different themes, controversies, imperial powers, and geographical areas as and when they become prominent within a global context. And covering periods from the Roman Empire to decolonization the volume is divided into six sections:
- The Imperial Project and ideas of Empire
- Regions of Empire
- People of Empire
- Imperial Sciences
- Imperial Culture
- Decolonisation and After.
With an introduction that explores two themes: why did the Europeans conquer colonies and how the colonial past has been studied, this is the perfect guide for all students of imperial history.
