At the same time, his discussion reflects another contemporary concern – globalisation and the relationship of the state to that process. Most recently, Southeast Asia has become a region of independent states, and Tarling discusses imperial ventures as forms of state-building. Moving forward in time, the author analyses attempts to re-establish control after the overthrow of imperial regimes in the Second World War. Nicholas Tarling’s definition of imperialism focuses on the establishment of political control from 1870 to 1914. This is one of the few studies of imperialism to concentrate on Southeast Asia. ![]() Examining the imperialist phenomenon from this wide-ranging perspective reveals imperialism as driven by rivalry it also facilitates comparison: imperialisms have elements in common, yet differ according to the state and territory concerned. Imperialism in Southeast Asia examines its subject in terms of several countries that could at a particular time be called imperialist: Britain, France, Spain, the Netherlands and the US.
