Empire. Than the modern world owes Britain: Nial Ferguson

How did the inhabitants of the rainy island in the North Atlantic be built, and after losing the empire, over which the Sun did not come in? What was the goal of the British colonial policy: robbery – or “export of freedom and order”? Is there a demand for imperialism in the 21st century? The provocative book of Niala Ferguson tells about the almost three -century world dominion of the British and his fruits, sweet and bitter. Some critics consider the “empire” an justified attempt to rehabilitate colonialism. Others send the British Empire – and Ferguson – curses.
