Character, Ethics and Economics: British Debates on Empire, 1860-1914
Cain, Peter (Sheffield Hallam University, UK)
This book is an examination of the concept of 'character' as a moral marker in the 19th and 20th centuries. It investigates how the 'character talk' that helped shape elite Britons' sense of themselves was used at this time to convince audiences that empire could be morally and materially justified and was a great force for good.
