The white man’s need for colonies : myths and realities

الملخص EN

This paper aims at shedding light on the European Imperial phenomenon in the 19th century.

It discusses the European Imperialism, in general, and that of Britain, in particular.

Several European scholars have written about the subject, but, with or without intention, they refrained from investigating the matter from the victims' point of view which reflects the attitude of the oppressed towards the agressors.

The value of this paper lies in showing the other side of Imperialism.

It argues against European claims that had been used to colonize and confiscate other nations' lands and fortunes.
