It traces the opium industry from the British annexation of the Burmese territories of Arakan and Tenasserim in 1826 to the end of the colonial era, arguing that this connection was multi-dimensional. The British regime regulated opium to facilitate labour extraction, and the articulation of a rationale for opium policy was inextricable from the articulation of a rationale for colonial rule more generally. Evolving discourses about race invoked opium consumption. Finally, Burma's position in multiple transnational and imperial networks informed its colonial opium policy"-- Geschichte 1900-2000 Geschichte 1800-1900 Geschichte 1826-1939 gnd rswk-swf Opium trade / Government policy / Burma / History / 19th century Opium trade / Government policy / Burma / History / 20th century Imperialism / Economic aspects / Burma / History Consumption (Economics) / Government policy / Burma / History HISTORY / Europe / Great Britain bisacsh HISTORY / Modern / 19th Century bisacsh HISTORY / Modern / 20th Century bisacsh HISTORY / Asia / Southeast Asia bisacsh Colonial influence fast Colonies / Administration fast Consumption (Economics) / Government policy fast Economic history fast Imperialism / Economic aspects fast Opium trade / Government policy fast Geschichte Kolonie Politik Wirtschaft Wirtschaft.
