  Synopsis Details Reviews  

The historical and social background of the British colonies in the South Pacific has been sketched in as a prelude to this book's main theme: the setting up of Western forms of government and their working in a non-Western society. The experience of Britain in these particular colonies is related in the final chapter to some general aspects of colonial government.
