Conquest and Resistance to Colonialism in Africa, Hardback Book

Conquest and Resistance to Colonialism in Africa Hardback

Edited by Gregory Maddox

Part of the Routledge Library Editions: World Empires series

Hardback

Description

The articles collected in this study, first published in 1993, concentrates on African struggles to maintain their autonomy.

Although the history of interaction between African peoples and those from outside that continent is old, for most of Africa colonial domination by European powers was both relatively recent and relatively short phenomenon.

In 1970 most Africans lived in independent societies; by 1915 all by two African states had been conquered by Europeans.

Resistance to European domination by Africans was continuous, although the level on which is occurred varied.

As the articles in this collection show, the costs of conquest to Africans was great.

This title will be of interest to students of African history and Imperialism.
