Book excerpt: The importance of education and training in developing countries is central to Peter Snelson's memoirs. After Cambridge, RAF service and teaching in Britain, in 1954 he went to Zambia (then Northern Rhodesia), where he worked as a teacher and education officer, later becoming Director of Planning at the Ministry of Education. He experienced at first hand the effects of the intense, sometimes violent, political activity of the years leading up to Zambia's independence, and knew many of the leading actors in the drama. After independence, he stayed on to assist with the integration of African and non-African education and the huge expansion of education that followed. In 1968, Mr Snelson returned to Britain and joined the Commonwealth Secretariat, where he was responsible for developing the Fellowships and Training Programme of the Commonwealth Fund for Technical Co-operation. Among the special assignments he undertook for the Secretary-General was support for the Commonwealth Group which observed Zimbabwe's pre-independence elections. He writes with sympathy, informed understanding and humour of a turbulent period in Africa's recent history, and of the development of the modern Commonwealth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young man in South Africa, Nelson Mandela aspired to be an interpreter or clerk, noting in his autobiography that “a career as a civil servant was a glittering prize for an African.” Africans in the lower echelons of colonial bureaucracy often held positions of little official authority, but in practice these positions were lynchpins of colonial rule. As the primary intermediaries among European colonial officials, African chiefs, and subject populations, these civil servants could manipulate the intersections of power, authority, and knowledge at the center of colonial society. By uncovering the role of such men (and a few women) in the construction, function, and legal apparatus of colonial states, the essays in this volume highlight a new perspective. They offer important insights on hegemony, collaboration, and resistance, structures and changes in colonial rule, the role of language and education, the production of knowledge and expertise in colonial settings, and the impact of colonization in dividing African societies by gender, race, status, and class.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The British Civil Service: Home, Colonial, Indian, and Diplomatic A personal experience Of forty-two years inside the British Civil Service, and the practical handling as a journalistic leader-writer of a considerable number of Civil Service questions arising from time to time for discussion in the public press, may, perhaps, be deemed sufficient warrant to me for writing this book. I venture to think I shall be doing a public service by its issue. My aim throughout it has been to show, by stimulating examples afforded of men who have succeeded in reaching high positions and honours, what, by perseverance and indomitable energy, can be accomplished in the finest administrative service in the world employing something like a quarter of a million of persons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colonialism is a dehumanizing experience for all those at the mercy of its power structures. The officers of the Indian Civil Service (ICS) were no exception. This book focuses on the role of ICS in World War II and engages in a wider debate about colonialism’s impact on its administrators and subjects. The author looks at the events of World War II specifically in the province of Assam in India’s North-East. It is here that the British and American troops were stationed as they attempted to retake Burma following Japan’s invasion in 1942 and supply the Allied Chinese by road and air. The volume also focuses on how radio broadcasting was used to manufacture the Indian public’s consent for the war effort and explores the horrors of the Bengal Famine and the controversies surrounding the British responses to it. The central character in the book’s narrative is Sir Andrew Clow who was a career civil servant in India. He was the Minister for Communications during the late 1930s and early 1940s before he became the Governor of Assam in 1942. The book is partly a biography of his fascinating career.
