摘要：

Extrapolation from a study of evolution and militarism suggests a questioning of the reigning textbook interpretation of a causal link between British 'new imperialism' and social Darwinism. The myth of a Darwinized imperial discourse seems largely the creation of inventive new liberals, notably J.A. Hobson, who feared the authoritarian implications of an invasive social science based upon biology.
