The reader is offered the first intellectual history of the British Army after the Great War in Russian and foreign historiography, examining its role in maintaining colonial order and internal security within the British Empire.

The author focuses on the "imperial school" of British military thought during the Interbellum era. The evolution of military intellectuals' understanding of the organizational forms and methods of struggle of national liberation and revolutionary movements was a characteristic feature of the final stage of the imperial world order's expansion. Uncovering this narrative allows for a new understanding of the relationship between the evolution of the British armed forces and the transformation of the British Empire, and a reconsideration of the significance of military thought for overseas empire-building and the role of expert knowledge in the final stages of the history of global colonial empires.
