Did the British Empire Commit Genocide? | Prof. Nigel Biggar

In this clip, Nigel dismantles the myth surrounding the British Empire's participation in genocide throughout its colonies. Nigel also highlights the negative actions of the unsanction few in contrast to the actions of the State, which actually tried to preserve native lives from the 1800s onwards. Nigel John Biggar CBE is Regius Professor of Moral and Pastoral Theology at the University of Oxford, author, Anglican priest, and theologian. He also directs the McDonald Centre for Theology, Ethics and Public Life at Oxford which aims to foster a conversation between Christian theology and other disciplines. In 2017, Biggar initiated the Oxford project “Ethics and Empire” which aimed to scrutinise a purely negative view of empires and argue that they were morally mixed. Some progressive historians and academics voraciously criticised the project for 'attempting to balance out the violence committed in the name of empire with its supposed benefits.' #colonialism #empire #debate -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Conversations feature John Anderson, former Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, interviewing the world's foremost thought leaders about today's pressing social, cultural and political issues.
