Answer:

He favored colonization by the British.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we look at Rudyard Kipling's works, it appears that he favored colonization by the British. Kipling believed that colonization allowed other countries to benefit from the knowledge and culture of England. He saw this as a great mission, and as a duty that England needed to fulfill. He expresses such views in works such as "The White Man's Burden." He also defended some controversial figures, such as Colonel Reginald Dyer, a key figure in the colonization of India.
