An Imperial Commonwealth (Classic Reprint): Being a Discussion of the Conditions and Possibilities Underlying the Unity of the British Empire - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This book argues for the preservation of an Imperial Commonwealth. The author, an experienced lecturer and author, discusses the bonds that hold or could hold an empire together: commercial benefit, sentiment, loyalty, and defence. The author believes that commercialism, the driving force of Britain's industry, is a predatory and unsustainable system. He views trade preference within the empire as a possible solution. The author posits that the colonies have shown a willingness to facilitate trade preference with the mother country, which Britain has refused to take advantage of. Regarding sentiment, the author contends that only a small portion of the population of Britain are interested in imperial affairs. While Canadians and Australians are fiercely loyal to the Crown and the traditions of British civilization, some have voiced support for separation. The author discusses the pros and cons of these arguments and provides a comprehensive view of the challenges and opportunities facing the preservation of an Imperial Commonwealth.
