This is the first book to describe and analyse this whole process of colonization in a comprehensive and comparative manner. The unique aspect of this book is that it combines the general and long term aspects of European expansion (demography, economy, power, conquest, administration, culture, education) with a detailed description and analysis of all the European colonies, and that it deals both with the period before and after 1880, thus placing European imperialism in a comparative and long term perspective.
