Download or read book Imperial Incarceration written by Michael Lobban and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2021-09-09 with total page 770 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For nineteenth-century Britons, the rule of law stood at the heart of their constitutional culture, and guaranteed the right not to be imprisoned without trial. At the same time, in an expanding empire, the authorities made frequent resort to detention without trial to remove political leaders who stood in the way of imperial expansion. Such conduct raised difficult questions about Britain's commitment to the rule of law. Was it satisfied if the sovereign validated acts of naked power by legislative forms, or could imperial subjects claim the protection of Magna Carta and the common law tradition? In this pathbreaking book, Michael Lobban explores how these matters were debated from the liberal Cape, to the jurisdictional borderlands of West Africa, to the occupied territory of Egypt, and shows how and when the demands of power undermined the rule of law. This title is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of the House of Skulls, one of the lost cultures of the Niger Delta. The House of Skulls was a European label for a house built by some Niger Delta communities with the skulls of their enemies killed in war. The case is used to argue that barbarism is not endemic to African Culture, but rather part of the primitive instinct of man and the House of Skulls, as evidence of human sacrifice, and headhunting in the Niger Delta and its hinterland in pre-colonial times was not worse than some of the practices, both African and European, which have been documented. In doing so the study provides fresh insights into the history of one of the lost cultures of the Niger Delta; a culture much modified in contemporary times.

Book excerpt: Based on the life of accomplished merchant prince King Ja Ja of Opobo, Anthony Kellman has created a rich and warm work of historical fiction. Posited as the main obstacle to British imperial interests in the palm oil-rich Niger delta, once omnipotent King Ja Ja is exiled to the West Indies for the final four years of his life. Focuses on the last four months of Jaja's life and the ironies of his position in Barbados where Whites dominated all aspects of life and race prejudice was nakedly expressed, but where many Black Barbadians were piqued to discover the presence of an African king amongst them. Weaving between the official records and the satirical and cynical traditions of the Tuk song. Traces the emerging love between an ailing African king in exile and his Barbadian servant Becka which brings new life to his battered body and spirit, and the Barbadian landscape lifts his despair, the king never loses his sense of the injustice done to him or gives up his desire to return home.

Book excerpt: Finalist, Helen Bernstein Book Award for Excellence in Journalism In the tradition of Eric Schlosser's Fast Food Nation, a groundbreaking global investigation into the industry ravaging the environment and global health—from the James Beard Award–winning journalist Over the past few decades, palm oil has seeped into every corner of our lives. Worldwide, palm oil production has nearly doubled in just the last decade: oil-palm plantations now cover an area nearly the size of New Zealand, and some form of the commodity lurks in half the products on U.S. grocery shelves. But the palm oil revolution has been built on stolen land and slave labor; it’s swept away cultures and so devastated the landscapes of Southeast Asia that iconic animals now teeter on the brink of extinction. Fires lit to clear the way for plantations spew carbon emissions to rival those of industrialized nations. James Beard Award–winning journalist Jocelyn C. Zuckerman spent years traveling the globe, from Liberia to Indonesia, India to Brazil, reporting on the human and environmental impacts of this poorly understood plant. The result is Planet Palm, a riveting account blending history, science, politics, and food as seen through the people whose lives have been upended by this hidden ingredient. This groundbreaking work of first-rate journalism compels us to examine the connections between the choices we make at the grocery store and a planet under siege.

Download or read book A Chronicle of Grand Bonny written by Ebiegberi Joe Alagoa and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2001 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contemporary reader probably best remembers the State of Bonny for the 1967 capturing of Nigeria's main oil port terminal from the secessionists by Federal Government forces - a local victory against military and economic blockades. This work is largely the result of the reinterpretaion of oral tradition and nineteenth century manuscripts in the light of recent research. In bringing together records of nineteenth century diplomatic relations of Bonny with foreign and neighbouring states, the study traces the significance of Bonny from the first Portuguese settlers and the Atlantic slave trade to the increasing British dominance in the nineteenth century, the rudiments and role of the European trading community in the twentieth century and independent Nigeria.
