Few aspects of the history of modern empires are of such significance as their economics and politics. The articles and chapters which are brought together in this volume relate not only to the European colonial empires, but also to the Napoleonic, Russian and Japanese empires. The collection is strongly comparative in approach with the articles arranged into thematic sections and the substantial introduction explores the themes and identifies key historiographical trends in relation to each.
