About this ebook
"Conciliation, Compulsion, Conversion: British Attitudes Towards Indigenous Peoples, 1763–1814" by Merete Falck Borch examines British imperial policies and attitudes toward indigenous populations in the American colonies, New South Wales, and the Cape Colony of South Africa during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This comparative study analyzes the development of policies in each region, tracing the legal and intellectual contexts that shaped them. Borch suggests a significant shift in British attitudes toward indigenous peoples over this period, a change that profoundly impacted political perceptions and policy formation. The book is part of the "Cross/Cultures" series and was published by Rodopi in 2004. Merete Falck Borch holds a PhD from the University of Copenhagen and has lectured on colonial and postcolonial literature and history. She has published extensively on British imperial policy toward indigenous peoples and contemporary land rights.
