Overview

“A Scheme for Imperial Federation, a Senate for the Empire” presents a vision for the future of the British Empire, advocating for a closer union of its constituent parts. Originally published as three articles in 'The Westminster Review' in 1879, this work by Granville Carlyle Cuningham outlines a plan for a federated empire governed by a central senate. The articles, reprinted with additions, explore the political and economic advantages of such a union, arguing that it would strengthen the empire against external threats and promote greater prosperity for all its members. Cuningham's scheme delves into the practical aspects of establishing an imperial federation, addressing issues such as representation, taxation, and defense. This historical document offers valuable insights into the debates surrounding imperial governance and the aspirations for a unified British world during the late 19th century. It remains relevant for scholars of British history, political science, and the history of colonialism.
