More about the book
Drawing on data from various European colonial empires, Niemietz casts doubt on the claim – popular among both 19th-century imperialists and modern-day progressives – that empire was a crucial factor in the West’s rise to prosperity. Instead, he shows that – its immorality aside – Western colonialism was simply bad economics.
