The Enlightenment, Philanthropy and the Idea of Social Progress in Early Australia

Creating a Happier Race?

Beschreibung

The Enlightenment begot a panoply of ideas, of which the notion of social progress is one of the most salient. It informed not only the way Europeans saw themselves, but also how they viewed indigenous people of their empires. This book describes how this theory influenced the civilising mission in early Australia.
