Description

The eighth volume in Frederick Madden's monumental documentary history of the British Empire, this volume deals with some of the dependencies—the West Indies, British Honduras, Hong Kong, Fiji, Cyprus, Gibraltar and the Falklands—since 1948. Using documentary materials, as in the earlier volumes, the book illustrates the progress toward self-government and independence, including, for instance, the development of communal tensions in Cyprus and the de facto division of the island, and the handing back of Hong Kong to China. The volume also includes Madden's valedictory summary and overview of the evolution of imperial government in the dependencies covered in these volumes, beginning with the Anglo-Norman empire of the 12th century. Along with the earlier volumes, this book provides a valuable resource for researchers interested in British imperialism.

Author Biography:

Frederick Madden was professorial fellow at Nuffield College, Oxford, from 1958 to 1984, and held the university post of reader in Commonwealth Government for all but one of the 28 years of its existence. He has now published eight volumes with Greenwood, covering the constitutional history of the British Empire and the Commonwealth from the 12th century to the end of the 20th century.
