Answer: give an opinion. Let's start with the fact that any person simply openly expressing his opinion, his position on any issue, will necessarily be in one way or another subject to criticism. Further, from the attitude to criticism really depends very much. For some people, criticism is a stimulus for self-development, for others- a destabilizing factor.
The one critique of imperialism that Joseph Conrad makes in the Heart of Darkness is that the colonists are ineffective at achieving their goals.
<u>Explanation:
</u>
In Joseph Conrad’s short novel ‘Heart of Darkness’ Conrad describes the white man’s quest to Africa to colonies it and establish a strong hold of Imperialism. He sets before him many goals of fulfillment. But at the end the colonists realize that they are ineffective at achieving their goals.
This Conrad explains through the character of Kurtz. Kurtz is a white man with a lot of promises. He sets out to Africa-the heart of darkness, to civilize the barbaric savages there. But at the end he is caught in the mesh of greed and African paganism and does not want to return home to his white man’s city or to his white fiancee.
He rather prefers to live with an African woman back in Africa, to be worshiped as a God, a rich ivory merchant. Thus Kurtz stands as the synecdoche for the colonists who are ineffective at achieving their goals.
