The creation of the League of Nations Permanent Mandates Commission
(PMC) at the close of the First World War, and its successor, the
United Nations Trusteeship Council (TC), following the Second, were
watersheds in the history of modern imperialism. For the first
time, the international community had asserted that the well-being
of colonial peoples was not merely the private concern of
metropolitan states, but a shared responsibility of humankind that
transcended national boundaries. Editors R.M. Douglas, Michael D.
Callahan, and Elizabeth Bishop have assembled a wide array of
scholars to assess the relative weight to be placed on
international influence in the process of decolonization.
Imperialism on Trial reveals, across a broad cross-section of
geographical and political settings, the operation of the
complicated and often conflicted dynamic between the national and
international dimensions of colonialism in its final and most
historically consequential phase.
