I. Expansion of trade
Coloniesbecomecaptive markets for Europeanmanufactured
goods.

II. National Prestige
European powers sought to ‘outdo’ each other to prove their greatness…

III. Civilization of Non-Europeans
The White Man’s Burden (Kipling)
The Christian duty of the white man is to civilize the heathen masses…

The White Man’s Burden (Kipling)
“Take up the White Man's burden--Send forth the best ye breed--Go bind your sons to exileTo serve your captives' need;To wait in heavy harness,On fluttered folk and wild--Your new-caught, sullen peoples,Half-devil and half-child.”

IV. Seizure of Raw Materials & Economic gain
Colonial landlords stripped their colonies of raw materials for manufacturing in the Mother Country
Colonies were forced to abandon traditional agricultural ways and switch to CASH CROPS for export
![Page 17: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Colonies became captive markets for the Mother Country’s manufactured goods
![Page 18: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Great Britain was the most successful colonial power.

6 Building Blocks of Colonialism
What have been the long term effects of colonialism on developing countries???
![Page 21: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
1. Grabbing the Cash Colonies were rich in natural resources…but
money from their crops and mines wasn’t spent in developing industries for the countries themselves. The money sailed off to Europe and USA
Example: Dutch East Indies (Indonesia) contributed one-third of the total budget of Holland. The Dutch were able to reduce their national debt, and this money paid for the construction of Dutch state railways.
![Page 22: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Grabbing the Cash: Colonial landlords built
limited infrastructures leaving them without significant industries
These areas are poor, unindustrialized and without satisfactory agricultural outputs
![Page 23: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
British Imperial Revenues
![Page 24: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Think About it:
If money had been used to develop Asia and Africa rather than Europe, what
differences might there be today?
![Page 25: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
2. The Raw Deal The switch to cash crops for export created
food shortages and soil depletion in colonies
Additionally, Europeans organized their colonies so that each one grew just two or three different crops
Ex: India=jute, cotton, tea; Ceylon=tea; Malaya=rubber
![Page 26: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Think about it…
Having only one or two export crops might
cause problems later on.
What might those be???
![Page 27: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
3. The Craft Crash European countries went to great lengths to
ensure that Asians would produce raw materials to be sold (at low prices) to the Mother Country and BUY manufactured products (at high prices) from the Mother Country.
Colonialists discouraged skilled artisans in the colonies through taxation and made sure that new machinery for production wasn’t made available in the colonies.
![Page 28: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Think about it…
How might this attack on craftspeople affect a
colony’s development???
![Page 29: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
4. Drawing the Line:Unnatural Borders
When creating a colony, people with little in common were chucked together, or those with a lot in common had a line drawn between them.
Europeans also encouraged distrust between different groups (divide and rule) in order to squash potential rebellion
![Page 30: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ex: In Indonesia, the Ambonese were used as soldiers to suppress other Indonesian people. Upon Independence, the Ambonese mostly fled Indonesia to live in exile in Holland
Sikhs were used as police in India
![Page 31: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Think about it
What problems might the artificial colonial
boundaries cause later???
![Page 32: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Civil/Sectarian/Border WarsWars and
conflict trouble most of these areas as a result of unnatural borders.
![Page 33: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
![Page 34: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
![Page 35: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
![Page 36: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
5. Holding up Hierarchies:
In order to control larger numbers of native peoples, Euros used oppression, military might and placed unpopular/unelected leaders in power
![Page 37: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
![Page 38: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Think about it:
The colonialists used violence, oppression and military might to keep in power leaders who were not chosen by the people. What problems might this cause after
these countries became independent?
![Page 39: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
6. West is BestIn education, culture, agriculture, development and economics, the
colonialists pushed their own ideas about the world.
“…Colonialism tended not only to deprive a society of its freedom and its wealth, but of its very character,
leaving its people intellectually and morally disoriented.”
-DK Fieldhouse-
![Page 40: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Think about it:
In schools and universities, in literature and newspapers, and in countless
other ways, Europeans insisted that Europe was the model of goodness.
How might this ‘cultural colonialism’ affect former colonies even today?
![Page 41: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Post WWII/Cold War Era: Weakened by two major wars,
Europeans could no longer stop colonial independence movements
One by one, colonies receive their independence and join the UN
USA and USSR fight for influence in these new ‘baby states’
![Page 42: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
![Page 43: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
To get started, these new nations are offered multi-billion dollar loans
International Monetary Fund World Bank
Today: They suffer from super huge debt problems. They are unable to pay their loans due to militaristic governments, lack of resources, lack of skilled workers, lack of infrastructure, and civil wars…all due to colonialism.
![Page 44: Age of Imperialism. Colonialism in Asia Spheres of Influences in China](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/56649e575503460f94b4efd4/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)

So…are they truly independent??? Many argue that the
debt of these countries is simply
neo-colonialism.
(The West still
controls and
maneuvers them.)
