| 520 | |a By 1945, everywhere one looked in the Far East the British Empire was being openly questioned or was failing outright.

British colonial administrations tried long and hard to inhibit the dialectical discord between their colonial hierarchism and local forms of nationalism with the prompts and plaudits of property politics. | ||
