"Empire, Kinship and Violence: Family Histories, Indigenous Rights and the Making of Settler Colonialism, 1770-1842" by Elizabeth Elbourne explores the interconnectedness of various families in settler colonialism during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The book argues that family biopower gradually shifted to bureaucratic state power in settler colonies, with settler and imperial families contributing to violence while using humanitarian arguments to shape it. The author provides extensive primary source research to support their analysis and offers a nuanced perspective on the lived experiences of individuals involved. While the book lacks engagement with relevant theoretical frameworks, it is a valuable resource for historians of British colonialism. [Extracted from the article]
