"The Mission to Siam and Hué, the Capital of Cochin China, in the Years 1821-2" is a historical narrative written by George Finlayson. Published in 1826, this work provides an account of a diplomatic mission to Siam (now Thailand) and Hué, the capital of Cochin China (now part of Vietnam), undertaken in the early 19th century. George Finlayson, a Scottish physician and naturalist, was part of the mission, and his narrative captures the experiences, observations, and interactions during this diplomatic venture. The work likely delves into cultural, political, and geographical aspects of the regions visited. For readers interested in historical travel narratives, diplomatic missions in Southeast Asia, and the perspectives of travelers from the early 19th century, "The Mission to Siam and Hué" offers valuable insights into a period of cross-cultural exchange and exploration.

This collection of essays collects the leading scholars on British colonial thought in Southeast Asia to consider the question: what was the relationship between liberalism and the British Empire in Southeast Asia? The empire builders in Southeast Asia: Lord Minto, William Farquhar, John Leyden, Thomas Stamford Raffles, and John Crawfurd - to name a few - were fervent believers in a liberal free trade order in Southeast Asia. Many recent studies of British imperialism, and European imperialism more generally, have addressed how the anti-imperialist tradition of Eighteenth century liberalism was increasingly intertwined with the discourses of empire, freedom, race and economics in the nineteenth century. This collection extends those studies to look at the impact of liberalism on. British colonialism in Southeast Asia and early nineteenth century Southeast Asia we see some of the first attempts at developing multicultural democracies within the colonies, experiments in free trade and attempts to use free trade to prevent war and colonisation.
