Publisher's Synopsis
The book ""The Asiatic Danger In The Colonies"" by Lawrence Elwin Neame is a historical account of the impact of Asian migration on the colonies during the early 20th century. The author provides a detailed analysis of the social, economic, and political implications of the influx of Asian immigrants into the colonies, focusing primarily on the British colonies in Asia.Through extensive research, Neame examines the various factors that contributed to the rise of Asian migration, including the demand for cheap labor in the colonies and the policies of colonial governments. He also explores the ways in which Asian migrants were perceived and treated by the colonial authorities and the local population, highlighting the discrimination and prejudice they faced.The book also delves into the broader geopolitical context of the time, examining the role of Asian migration in shaping the relationships between the colonies and their respective imperial powers. Neame argues that the issue of Asian migration was not only a local concern, but also a global one, with far-reaching implications for international relations.Overall, ""The Asiatic Danger In The Colonies"" offers a comprehensive and insightful analysis of a complex and often overlooked aspect of colonial history. It sheds light on the experiences of Asian migrants in the colonies, as well as the broader political and social dynamics of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
