Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The True Temper of Empire: With Corollary Essays I Define the true temper of Empire as a temper which mingles wisely and in fit proportions the sovereignty of the central authority with the liberties of the constituent areas. In the essay which gives its title to this volume and in the corollary essays, except the last, I have discussed the operation of this temper in the maintenance of an United Empire; in the last I have discussed the operation of the same temper in the maintenance of an United Kingdom. I do not regret that, in presenting in a collective form essays addressed to a variety of audiences or readers, it has been found impossible to avoid repetition in the statement of principles and imperial declarations of policy, such as Queen Victoria´s Proclamation to the Princes and Peoples of India in 1858.
