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.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over recent decades, the responsibility for the past actions of the European colonial powers in relation to their former colonies has been subject to a lively debate. In this book, the question of the responsibility under international law of former colonial States is addressed. Such a legal responsibility would presuppose the violation of the international law that was applicable at the time of colonization. In the ‘Scramble for Africa’ during the Age of New Imperialism (1870-1914), European States and non-State actors mainly used cession and protectorate treaties to acquire territorial sovereignty (imperium) and property rights over land (dominium). The question is raised whether Europeans did or did not on a systematic scale breach these treaties in the context of the acquisition of territory and the expansion of empire, mainly through extending sovereignty rights and, subsequently, intervening in the internal affairs of African political entities.

Download or read book Dark Continent written by Mark Mazower and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2009-05-20 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unflinching and intelligent alternative history of the twentieth century that provides a provocative vision of Europe's past, present, and future. "[A] splendid book." —The New York Times Book Review Dark Continent provides an alternative history of the twentieth century, one in which the triumph of democracy was anything but a forgone conclusion and fascism and communism provided rival political solutions that battled and sometimes triumphed in an effort to determine the course the continent would take. Mark Mazower strips away myths that have comforted us since World War II, revealing Europe as an entity constantly engaged in a bloody project of self-invention. Here is a history not of inevitable victories and forward marches, but of narrow squeaks and unexpected twists, where townships boast a bronze of Mussolini on horseback one moment, only to melt it down and recast it as a pair of noble partisans the next.

Download or read book The Black Jacobins written by C.L.R. James and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2023-08-22 with total page 465 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerful and impassioned historical account of the largest successful revolt by enslaved people in history: the Haitian Revolution of 1791–1803 “One of the seminal texts about the history of slavery and abolition.... Provocative and empowering.” —The New York Times Book Review The Black Jacobins, by Trinidadian historian C. L. R. James, was the first major analysis of the uprising that began in the wake of the storming of the Bastille in France and became the model for liberation movements from Africa to Cuba. It is the story of the French colony of San Domingo, a place where the brutality of plantation owners toward enslaved people was horrifyingly severe. And it is the story of a charismatic and barely literate enslaved person named Toussaint L’Ouverture, who successfully led the Black people of San Domingo against successive invasions by overwhelming French, Spanish, and English forces—and in the process helped form the first independent post-colonial nation in the Caribbean. With a new introduction (2023) by Professor David Scott.
