The Herero Genocide : War, Emotion, and Extreme Violence in Colonial Namibia, Paperback / softback Book

The Herero Genocide : War, Emotion, and Extreme Violence in Colonial Namibia Paperback / softback

Part of the War and Genocide series

Paperback / softback

Description

Drawing on previously inaccessible and overlooked archival sources, The Herero Genocide undertakes a groundbreaking investigation into the war between colonizer and colonized in what was formerly German South-West Africa and is today the nation of Namibia.

In addition to its eye-opening depictions of the starvation, disease, mass captivity, and other atrocities suffered by the Herero, it reaches surprising conclusions about the nature of imperial dominion, showing how the colonial state’s genocidal posture arose from its own inherent weakness and military failures.

The result is an indispensable account of a genocide that has been neglected for too long.
