Voracious white ants, floods, fires, damp, decades of government failu res, neglect and other paper-destroying hazards destroyed much of the north's colonizing record. Its early ports, Fort Dundas, Fort Wellington and Fort Essington, were abandoned, then its administrative centre, the first Palmerston at Escape Cliffs, was deserted. The cyclones of 1897 and 1937 leveled the second Palmerston (renamed Darwin in I 911) while dramatic attacks during 1942 and 1943 by Japanese bombers during World War Two, again flattened much of the city. Another kind of cataclysmcolonialism- causcd the partial destruction oflndigenous peoples and their perspectives of history.

This important overview explores the connections between Singapore's past with historical developments worldwide until present day. The contributors analyse Singapore as a city-state seeking to provide an interdisciplinary perspective to the study of the global dimensions contributing to Singapore's growth. The book's global perspective demonstrates that many of the discussions of Singapore as a city-state have relevance and implications beyond Singapore to include Southeast Asia and the world. This vital volume should not be missed by economists, as well as those interested in imperial history, business history and networks.
