- W2487274051 abstract "In 1858, Victorian liberal parliamentarian Thomas McCombie published his History of the Colony of Victoria. This colony, in twenty years of startling historical change, had progressed from functioning as an administrative satellite of New South Wales to self-governing “independence” with complete (white) manhood suffrage. To describe a geopolity territorialized as a self-governing British colony only two decades after formal colonization began, McCombie deployed a narrative of manly liberal development to explain how “the bureaucratic style of government [had] been thrown aside and an entirely new order of things had developed. [Victoria had] passed from a perfect despotism... to the opposite point of extreme democracy.” If, as James Levine argues, ideas about manhood provided the bedrock for dynamics of political incorporation in nineteenth-century British liberal thought, it should come as no surprise that McCombie’s historical “colonists” embodied a suite of manly and respectable political competencies.3 Furthermore, for McCombie, the Victorian colonist was discursively cohered via a spectral contrast with the “helpless aborigine [who] wasn’t fit to have a political existence”; as Uday Mehta so compelhngly describes, access to the (hu)man rights and entitlements of liberal thought in the nineteenth century was always modulated by the idea of race. McCombie’s History thus mobilized ideas about raciahzed political competency to both concretize a particular ordering of territory and governance and to organize political entitlements within this colonial state." @default.
