Publisher's Synopsis
The Control of the Tropics is a historical book written by Benjamin Kidd in 1898. The book explores the imperialism and colonialism of European powers in the tropics during the late 19th century. Kidd argues that the domination of these powers over the tropical regions was driven by economic interests and the need for resources, rather than any moral or ethical considerations. He also examines the impact of colonialism on the indigenous people and the environment, highlighting the exploitation and destruction that occurred. The book is a critical analysis of the political and economic systems that shaped the colonial era, and it provides insights into the motivations and consequences of imperialism. It is a significant work in the field of colonial studies and remains relevant today as a commentary on the legacy of colonialism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
