    ⓘ The white man's burden Cette expression provient du titre d'un poème de l'écrivain anglais Rudyard Kipling publié en 1899, dans lequel il fait l'éloge du colonialisme, justifié selon lui par la supériorité culturelle de l'empire britannique. Le "fardeau" auquel le titre fait référence est la mission civilisatrice de l'homme blanc colonisateur. Le titre du poème devint le slogan des impérialistes de l'époque. L'expression est aujourd'hui souvent utilisée de façon ironique pour désigner l'attitude raciste et condescendante des impérialistes.
