Download or read book Church and Settler in Colonial Zimbabwe written by Pamela Welch and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008-08-31 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the history of the Anglican Diocese of Mashonaland/Southern Rhodesia (virtually co-extensive with modern Zimbabwe) in the period 1890-1925, when its institutions took shape and its religious character was formed. While work among indigenous communities is outlined, the primary subject is the church’s work with white settlers. A fresh general narrative is provided and an examination of clergy recruitment and finance relates events in Mashonaland to developments in global Anglicanism. Among the questions addressed are those of religion and empire, church and state and the complexities of relationship between the Church of England and her overseas extensions, particularly those covering areas of white settlement. Local developments in religious practice are also explored: most striking of these was the settler apprehension of the vast landscapes of South-Central Africa as a locus of the sacred and their custom of veld burial.

This book was released on 2016-08-12 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Handbook of the History of Settler Colonialism examines the global history of settler colonialism as a distinct mode of domination from ancient times to the present day. It explores the ways in which new polities were established in freshly discovered ‘New Worlds’, and covers the history of many countries, including Australia, New Zealand, Israel, Japan, South Africa, Liberia, Algeria, Canada, and the USA. Chronologically as well as geographically wide-reaching, this volume focuses on an extensive array of topics and regions ranging from settler colonialism in the Neo-Assyrian and Roman empires, to relationships between indigenes and newcomers in New Spain and the early Mexican republic, to the settler-dominated polities of Africa during the twentieth century. Its twenty-nine inter-disciplinary chapters focus on single colonies or on regional developments that straddle the borders of present-day states, on successful settlements that would go on to become powerful settler nations, on failed settler colonies, and on the historiographies of these experiences. Taking a fundamentally international approach to the topic, this book analyses the varied experiences of settler colonialism in countries around the world. With a synthesizing yet original introduction, this is a landmark contribution to the emerging field of settler colonial studies and will be a valuable resource for anyone interested in the global history of imperialism and colonialism.

Excerpt: ... vm administra tion The scheme which has now been adopted for the administration of Matabeleland, though criticised as faulty in some of its details, has met with a general approval in South Africa. It was at first feared, and not without reason, that a Crown Colony would be established here; but Her Majesty's Government, bearing in mind that Matabeleland as well as Mashonaland is included within the region described in the Charter as the principal field of the operations of the British South Africa Company, that the concessions held by the Company are applicable to the whole of Lobengula's territory, and that the recent war had been principally carried on at the expense of the Company, decided that it would be right to place Matabeleland under the direct administration of the Company, and that the Company's machinery for government which was at work in Mashonaland should be extended with certain modifications to the newly acquired country. The Company was to be left to govern the entire territory; but in order that the rights of the natives might be safeguarded, the Imperial Government was to be vested with a somewhat fuller control over the Company than heretofore. The day will no doubt come when a representative form of government will prevail in Ehodesia. An agitation for an extension of local self-government in the townships has already commenced, and the settlers have also petitioned that one member of the Administrative Council, recently created by the Imperial Government, should be elected by ballot by the residents of the country. To accede to this desire, which is by no means general, but is rather the whim of certain busybodies, is out of the question at this early stage of the country's development, and to hold a general...
