Dear RRAP101 participant

Historical overview of Europeans in Asia and the Pacific
The underlying value positions that reinforced the pattern of European interaction in Asia and the Pacific have included primitivism, progressivism, Christianity, geographic determinism and finally, scientific empiricism. Some of these value positions still sometimes influence, to varying degrees, contemporary interactions in the region. Therefore, it is important that we identify, examine and evaluate the perceptions held by Europeans in the region, in both historical and contemporary times.
