grand empire au monde, la Grande-Bretagne devait trouver des voies et moyens pour
abandonner ses territoires africains mais pas a n’importe quel prix. Les imperialistes de
l’epoque victorienne devaient renverser la tendance en transformant le processus de la decolonisation en A frique en un systeme impérialiste informel qui produisit des outils de l’Impérialisme gérés par la principale autorité imperiale pour reproduire des structures irnpériales sur le Continent noir.
