| Research Abstract |
This study examines the way in which the discourse on global environmental crisis was emerged and spread in the British Empire between the Wars, and also identifies the nature of this discourse. Colonial scientists had a strong influence on imperial land policy, so that soil conservation had been started in the 1930s. They insisted that the relationship between man and nature should be revised to avoid the decline of civilization near the future. On the other hand, colonial scientists suggested that indigenous people should be excluded from decision making of the land management, because they were seen as the very cause of environmental degradation.
