Excerpt from Democracy, Imperialism and Christianity: Address at the Annual Meeting of the N. E. Anti-Imperialist League at Wesleyan Hall, November 30, 1901 It is to a positive purpose, therefore, that we must address ourselves. It is a definite aim that we must announce. It is to a specific end that we must direct our energies. And having once framed such a purpose and announced it, we must patiently and without faltering keep to its announcement and advocacy till the end is accomplished. I think I may, without wearisomeness here this afternoon, say a word on this point. At the moment that we are assembled, one would almost be willing to say that imperialism in America is an accomplished fact. Certainly, with a president whose entire career is marked by emphasis upon those principles of personal government which translated into national life become imperialism, with a country prosperous beyond the dreams of men even a generation ago, with wealth increasing and become so centralized that it is an open question where the seat of government actually is, with one great political party apparently so hopelessly demoralized that sound and capable leadership is not immediately to be looked for, certainly the average man, looking on, would naturally judge the policy of imperialism firmly grafted into the fabric of the government. But this would be a grave error, nevertheless. The present imperialistic policy is not so firmly grounded as was the policy of slavery. No such a series of attempts to root up imperialism have been made with failure as were made to handle the fundamentally false policy of slavery, with failure in every case. Men now living can remember when the cause of abolition was vastly more unpopular than that of anti-imperialism is today. They can recall violence to the leaders of the negroes' cause, which no one would be willing to attempt against the advocates of liberty and self - government for the Filipinos. It would be the grossest of skepticism, therefore, to pause and be discouraged under the present circumstances. Such unbelief in the redemptive processes among men would warrant challenging the sincerity of the advocates of liberty. No, my friends, so far from being discouraged or skeptical of the ultimate success of the ends for which this league is established, the very freedom of the discussion, the very opportunity for the widest dissemina tion of the views that we hold, through the publicpress, all are indicative of certain triumph in the end. But 01n advocacy must be constant, in season' and out. Te must become all things to all men that by all means wemay save some. We must plead, exhort, enlighten, instruct and advocate. No man who thoroughly knows what genuine democracy is will feel the slightest fear for the ultimate success of democratic principles. Few causes have been so often or so cruelly betrayed. Few causes are so naturally the prey of self seeking and ambitious men. W'hen tempted by the view of the king doms of the earth from the points of privilege and power, few men resist the temptation to be imperial, when their duty is to remain free.

This book provides insight into the long process of decolonisation within the Methodist Overseas Missions of Australasia, a colonial institution that operated in the British colony of Fiji. The mission was a site of work for Europeans, Fijians and Indo-Fijians, but each community operated separately, as the mission was divided along ethnic lines in 1901. This book outlines the colonial concepts of race and culture, as well as antagonism over land and labour, that were used to justify this separation. Recounting the stories told by the mission’s leadership, including missionaries and ministers, to its grassroots membership, this book draws on archival and ethnographic research to reveal the emergence of ethno-nationalisms in Fiji, the legacies of which are still being managed in the post-colonial state today. ‘Analysing in part the story of her own ancestors, Kirstie Barry develops a fascinating account of the relationship between Christian proselytization and Pacific nationalism, showing how missionaries reinforced racial divisions between Fijian and Indo-Fijian even as they deplored them. Negotiating the intersections between evangelisation, anthropology and colonial governance, this is a book with resonance well beyond its Fijian setting.’ – Professor Alan Lester, University of Sussex ‘This thoroughly researched and finely crafted book unwraps and finely illustrates the interwoven layers of evolving complexity in different interpretations of ideals and debates on race, culture, colonialism and independence that informed the way the Methodist Mission was run in Fiji. It describes the human personalities and practicalities, interconnected at local, regional and global levels, which influenced the shaping of the Mission and the independent Methodist Church in Fiji. It documents the influence of evolving anthropological theories and ecumenical theological understandings of culture on mission practice. The book’s rich sources enhance our understanding of the complex history of ethnic relations in Fiji, helping to explain why ethnic divisive thinking remains a challenge.’– Jacqueline Ryle, University of the South Pacific ‘A beautifully researched study of the transnational impact of South Asian bodies on nationalisms and church devolution in Fiji, and an important resource for empire studies as a whole.’ – Professor Jane Samson, University of Alberta, Canada

This book vividly traces the genealogy of modern womanhood in the encounters between Koreans and American Protestant missionaries in the early twentieth century, during Korea's colonization by Japan. Hyaeweol Choi shows that what it meant to be a "modern" Korean woman was deeply bound up in such diverse themes as Korean nationalism, Confucian gender practices, images of the West and Christianity, and growing desires for selfhood. Her historically specific, textured analysis sheds new light on the interplay between local and global politics of gender and modernity.

This study reinterprets a crucial period (1870s-1920s) in the history of women's rights, focusing attention on a core contradiction at the heart of early feminist theory. At a time when white elites were concerned with imperialist projects and civilizing missions, progressive white women developed an explicit racial ideology to promote their cause, defending patriarchy for "primitives" while calling for its elimination among the "civilized." By exploring how progressive white women at the turn of the century laid the intellectual groundwork for the feminist social movements that followed, Louise Michele Newman speaks directly to contemporary debates about the effect of race on current feminist scholarship. "White Women's Rights is an important book. It is a fascinating and informative account of the numerous and complex ties which bound feminist thought to the practices and ideas which shaped and gave meaning to America as a racialized society. A compelling read, it moves very gracefully between the general history of the feminist movement and the particular histories of individual women."--Hazel Carby, Yale University
