Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans and Africa, Their Aims on the Dark Continent and How They Acquired Their African Colonies The German Chancellor Caprivi, who succeeded Bismarck, on one occasion stated that it would be the greatest misfortune for Germany to secure the whole of Africa. It is the purpose of this book to show how the colonial movement arose in the Fatherland, to point out the causes that led to the colonial activity of the last two decades of the nineteenth century, to describe the founding of the German colonial system in Africa and the diplomatic and sometimes peculiar processes by which it was constantly enlarged, and incidentally to demonstrate how the German colonial appetite grew and grew until there was no reasonable room for doubt that the German people were aiming at a banquet at which the African continent should be the chief dish. In dealing with the history of German colonial beginnings in Africa, one supreme fact emerges from the review: Great Britain, already firmly established on the Dark Continent, was not prepared to welcome the intrusion of a new rival, and adopted a policy that, from the German point of view, led to bitter and perhaps unreasoning jealousy. In her dealings with Germany, Great Britain did not at first readily co-operate with her new neighbour. The reason is not far to seek.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Germans and Africa, Their Aims on the Dark Continent and How They Acquired Their African Colonies After a survey of the diplomatic history of the period, the question naturally intrudes itself - Was Great Britain justified in the attitude she first adopted towards her new competitor? From the British point of view, certainly. Great Britain had been first in the field, and in the struggle of the nations the first-comer naturally expects, if his strength fail not, to retain the prizes within his grasp. But the fact must not be overlooked that there is much to be said from the German point of View, and although the game of grab can never be a polite and gentle exercise, no player has really the right to complain if another is first in the field and secures the best stakes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study recounts the reasons why the order for the Herero genocide was very likely issued by the Kaiser himself, and why proof of this has not emerged before now. In 1904, the indigenous Herero people of German South West Africa (now Namibia) rebelled against their German occupiers. In the following four years, the German army retaliated, killing between 60,000 and 100,000 Herero people, one of the worst atrocities ever. The history of the Herero genocide remains a key issue for many around the world partly because the German policy not to pay reparations for the Namibian genocide contrasts with its long-standing Holocaust reparations policy. The Herero case bears not only on transitional justice issues throughout Africa, but also on legal issues elsewhere in the world where reparations for colonial injustices have been called for. This book explores the events within the context of German South West Africa (GSWA) as the only German colony where settlement was actually attempted. The study contends that the genocide was not the work of one rogue general or the practices of the military, but that it was inexorably propelled by Germany's national goals at the time. The book argues that the Herero genocide was linked to Germany's late entry into the colonial race, which led it frenetically and ruthlessly to acquire multiple colonies all over the world within a very short period, using any means available.

Download or read book German Colonialism and National Identity written by Michael Perraudin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-14 with total page 670 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: German colonialism is a thriving field of study. From North America to Japan, within Germany, Austria and Switzerland, scholars are increasingly applying post-colonial questions and methods to the study of Germany and its culture. However, no introduction on this emerging field of study has combined political and cultural approaches, the study of literature and art, and the examination of both metropolitan and local discourses and memories. This book will fill that gap and offer a broad prelude, of interest to any scholar and student of German history and culture as well as of colonialism in general. It will be an indispensable tool for both undergraduate and postgraduate teaching. .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This year the United Nations celebrated the 'Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide', adopted in December 1948. It is time to recognize the man behind this landmark in international law. At the beginning were a few words: "New conceptions require new terms. By ‘genocide’ we mean the destruction of a nation or of an ethnic group". Rarely in history have paradigmatic changes in scholarship been brought about with such few words. Putting the quintessential crime of modernity in only one sentence, Raphael Lemkin (1900-1959), the Polish Jewish specialist in international law, not only summarized the horrors of the National Socialist Crimes, which were still underway, when he coined the term "genocide" in 1944, but also influenced international law. As the founding figure of the UN Genocide Convention Lemkin is finally getting the respect he deserves. Less known is his contribution to historical scholarship on genocide. Until his death, Lemkin was working on a broad study on genocides in the history of humankind. Unfortunately, he did not manage to publish it. The contributions in this book offer for the first time a critical assessment not only of his influence on international law but also on historical analysis of mass murders, showing the close connection between both. This book was published as a special issue of the Journal of Genocide Research.
