Answer:
Indirect control
Explanation:
Social Darwinism refers to a social theory that was popular from the 1870s to the early or mid-20th century. This theory argues that the biological concepts of natural selection and survival of the fittest should be applied to human societies. This view states that certain groups of people are weaker, less intelligent or less capable, and that they should not be able to hold significant power, wealth or autonomy. Social Darwinism was influential in the development of ideologies such as authoritarianism, eugenics, racism, imperialism, fascism and Nazism.
This was also primarily present in the indirect method of colonial control. Indirect rule was mainly used by the British and the French in their Asian and African colonies. This was done by maintaining the traditional power structures of these regions, but granting their administration to a small group of European "advisors." This was due to the belief that the European colonists were more intelligent and cultured, and would therefore know what to do in these regions better than the locals themselves.
