Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the development of self-government in the British Commonwealth, tracing its origins in England and comparing its evolution to the parallel process in the United States. The author delves into the intricate relationship between the British Isles and its colonies, exploring how the colonies gradually gained autonomy in areas like taxation, trade, and immigration. The book uses historical examples to illustrate the challenges and successes of colonial self-government, revealing the gradual shift from a system of imperial control to one of self-determination. It explores the inherent tensions between the desire for local autonomy and the need for a unified Commonwealth, particularly with regards to matters of defense and foreign policy.
