This book examines the nature and institutions of the Commonwealth of Nations.
The Inside Story is a fascinating account of life at the centre of the Commonwealth's administrative structure and a remarkable insight into how international diplomacy functions at the highest level. On his appointment, Emeka Anyaoku, embarked on a path of careful political diplomacy, often at odds with the more confrontational approach adopted by others, and put the Commonwealth at the centre of negotiating the peaceful rebuilding of a new democratic South Africa. The diplomatic skill, humour and determination that Emeka demonstrated in his handling of the this situation are trademarks of his career in service to the Commonwealth.
Written by a senior Indian diplomat who has until recently also served as Commonwealth Deputy Secretary-General, this book provides a unique and far-reaching exploration of the British Commonwealth, and its impact since the second World War on the process of Britain adjusting to a world without Empire. Whither the Commonwealth now? What is its record of achievement; what are the benefits of membership to countries in terms of collective political influence, trade, investment, aid, travel and education? Can any practical good be envisaged for this nearly moribund post-colonial organization? Britain, which brought the association into being and is central to it, would have to play a key part in determining its future. But in coming to such decisions, the British Government faces great problems of perception, both from the Monarchy and the British public.

Excerpt from The Modern Commonwealth, Vol. 5: 1893-1918 Progress has been particularly marked in all lines of eco nomic activity. The growth of population and of wealth, the steadily augmenting output of farm and factory and mine, the expansion of railway and other transportation facilities, and the improvements in agriculture, manufactures, banking, and commerce, all bear Witness to the energy and successful achieve ments of the people. But the story is by no means confined to material improvement. With the growth in wealth has come an increasing application of that wealth and the interests of the people to the advancement of culture, of art, and of learning. And with the growth in leisure has come better understanding of political problems and a determination to solve them.
