This book was released on 2018-12-01 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book by American historian William O. Aydelotte deals with the first chapter in the history of the German colonial empire, the dispute between Germany and England over South West Africa during the years 1883-85. “Since South West Africa was the first German colony, its history shows most clearly the reactions and readjustments both in British and German policy which were the consequence of the German colonial program. The incident also brings into relief several great political trends of the late nineteenth century: the growth of imperialism in Germany and in England, the conflict in the latter country between the different systems of colonial thought, the diplomatic problem of conducting negotiations between a democratic and an autocratic state, and the causes and results of these two different methods of diplomacy. Above all the story furnishes a superb illustration of Bismarck’s diplomatic technique. Because of its special importance, the South West African controversy is treated in some detail. The attempt has been made to present not a general survey of the period but a description of specific events. At the same time, the German colonial question is closely bound up with other circumstances, and it has been necessary to go well outside the bare details of the negotiations in order to explain all the influences at work on British and German policy. For this reason a good deal of space has been given in the first two chapters to the colonial and political background in both England and Germany, and especially to the way in which this background affected the men in office in 1883-85. On the other hand, less attention has been given to those subjects which have been adequately discussed elsewhere. Full consideration has, however, been given to the Egyptian problem and the general diplomatic situation both in the narrative and in the conclusions.”

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 The Colonial Contest for the Nigerian Region 1884 1900 written by Olayemi Akinwumi and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2002 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines German participation in the colonial contest for Nigeria during the scramble for and partition of Africa at the end of the nineteenth Century. It focuses on the activities of some German individuals and organisations that were actively engaged in the struggle to acquire the Nigerian region as a colony for Germany. There are two reasons for this failure: one, lack of consisient colonial policy during Bismarck's era and two, the Opposition of the Royal Niger Company. The only success recorded in Nigeria was in Adamawa and Borno. Germany got some parts of these emirates as a result of the determination of the Royal Niger Company, supported by the British government, to deny the French any access to the navigable part of the two major rivers. Germany retained control of this region until the outbreak of the First World War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from British Colonial Policy: 1783 1915 When we speak of Britain's Colonial policy a critic might at once object that Great Britain has never had a Colonial policy. By sheer good fortune, it might be maintained, she stumbled into possession of fertile places in various parts of the earth and has succeeded in retaining them. There is a certain measure of truth in this contention. The British Empire is undoubtedly due to the political genius, the enterprise, the independent spirit and the initiative of individuals, rather than to the constant and enlightened pursuit of a definite goal by the British Government. Nevertheless, as we view it, the history of Great Britain's Colonial policy since 1783 is the history of an evolutionary process in which there are three marked stages. During the first period the mother country, disillusioned and disappointed, left the entire control of the Colonies nominally to the Secretary of State charged with their administration, in reality to the permanent officials in the Colonial Office. Thus ruled from Downing Street, they came to resent the interference of 'Mr. Mother Country' in their concerns, and clamoured for Responsible Government as the only permanent remedy of their political, economic and social disorders.
