Information About

In this book, the author examines the benefits of the Culture System established in Java in 1832 by the Dutch, and shows how it was able to solve the problems of poverty, crime and dissatisfaction among the natives, general discontent among the Europeans, a large debt and yearly deficit in income and the absence of good feeling between the Europeans and the natives. He discusses how these examples from Java can be used by British India to manage and improve conditions in the British colonies.
