This is an examination of the response of British policy makers to
the collapse of belief in racial superiority, and with it the
ideological basis of empire, following the fall of Singapore in
1942. The book studies the Anglo American debate in which British
officials, led by Lord Hailey, countered American criticisms of
imperial rule by emphasizing economic development and peace keeping
as new, non-racial justifications for western authority. These are
themes that have retained a powerful resonance in the post-war
world.
