Download or read book The Congo Free State and the New Imperialism written by Kevin Grant and published by Macmillan Higher Education. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces students to the history of the Congolese peoples and the Congo Free State, ruled by King Leopold II of Belgium between 1885 and 1908. It illuminates central issues in the study of the era of the "new imperialism" and challenges students to analyze a variety of different kinds of sources in building their own historical arguments about the period. The introduction provides an overview of the Congolese peoples, the environment in which they lived, and the process through which the Congo Free State was established and developed. The documents invite students to explore the history of the Congo Free State through speeches, international treaties, oral histories, investigative depositions on atrocities, visual texts, official and private correspondence, parliamentary debates, and published exposés. Document headnotes, a chronology, and analytical questions help students to place the Congo Free State in the context of not only the new imperialism but also its larger global context.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneering on the Congo, Vol. 1: With a Map and 206 Illustrations From Sketches, Photographs and Materials, Supplied by the Baptist Missionary Society, Several of Their Missionaries and the Government of the Congo Free State A missionary naturally sees things from his own point of view but there should be much in this story of twenty years' work - in such a country and at such a time - which should appeal to those who take interest in matters geographical and ethnological, and in the progress and development of barbarous peoples and wild countries. We found the people practically untouched by any foreign influence; now all is changing and changed, and this alone more than suffices to compel one, who has been closely in contact with the native life, to state the condition in which the country was found and people, and to note how the great changes which have occurred have come about. I have also endeavoured to give, very briefly, the past history of the country during the 400 years since the coast was first visited by white men, so far as we have any reliable information; and I have ventured to gather together the hints as to the remoter history of the country itself, of its interesting peoples, and the formation of the Congo river. In writing this history I have had constantly to regret the frequent recurrence of the first personal pronoun; but it has been unavoidable. I write of what I have seen and known intimately, and it is because of my intimate knowledge that I have had to write.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Independent State of the Congo: And International Law If we recall these elementary ideas, it is because the are too often lost sight of; too often writers and jurists neglect them, either on account of their holding fast to theories long since dead, or because they do not take into account the changes that have occurred in the domain of fact. The old definitions showed, in the law of nations, the law which existed between several peoples or between the chiefs of peoples, as Grotius said; they recognised the applicability of its rules to dynasties and sovereign houses. In contemporary legal science, international law only governs the relations of States. The modern State itself is an institution quite different from the ancient forms of the political community. The word State, let us repeat (I), made its appearance tolerably slowly; it comes from that Italy of the close of the Middle Ages where almost all the creations of politics were produced; the State, lo Stato, was composed of the persons immediately around the Prince; it was the assemblage of those who directed and governed. Later the essence itself of the State, regarded as the central power, was modified. New attributes were conferred upon it; it was no longer a question of the ancient authority, tangible and visible, which manifested itself especially for the purpose of threatening and punishing. The idea of a juridical person made itself accepted, a person distinct from chiefs and citizens, a person whose will is itself distinct from the wills of its members.
