The Struggle for Asia 1828–1914 (1977) studies a classic case of
rival imperialisms. British leaders tended to believe that Russian
expansion threatened India; Russian leaders came to believe in a
British threat to their empire. Each sought security by trying to
control the policies of weaker states which lay between their
imperial frontiers and on whose alignment depended the balance of
power. By 1914, when both felt even more threatened by Germany than
by one another, Russia seemed to have gained the upper hand in a
struggle for hegemony in Asia which had been crucial for the course
of world politics. This book examines the intellectual origins of
the ‘Great Game’.
