Between Desk and Field: Rethinking the History of Knowledge Production in International Rural Development, 1960s–1970s
This article revisits the history of knowledge production in international rural development during the 1960s and 1970s. It contrasts desk-bound and field-based approaches to show, in historical perspective, how development knowledge was produced, contested, and shaped by shifting institutional and geopolitical contexts. Drawing on archival sources from the International Labor Organization, it traces how forms of knowledge emerging in this period…
Co-ordinated Under one Machine’: International and faith-based rural development, 1950s–1980s
This article examines international and faith-based rural development from the 1950s to the 1980s, with rural Chile serving as a lens to explore the gendered intersections of these efforts. Rural education promoted rigid family models, separating feminine domestic responsibilities from masculine agrarian productivity. Drawing on archival records from the ILO, the WFP, and the German Catholic NGO Misereor, the article disentangles interactions bet…
The Angolan Experiment’: Colonial and Post-Independence Rural Social Engineering, 1960s-1980s
Gendering Development and Social Control in the Iberian Empires in Africa, 1950s–1970s
In the 1950s and 1960s, ‘cultural uplifting’ of women in the Global South went hand in hand with the mantra of socio-economic development. This essay contends that the Iberian empires followed the general path set by international bodies and other European colonial powers, notwithstanding their cultural and ideological peculiarities. The sustained focus on the relationship between the violent socio-economic changes and the cultural transformation…
The Beauty of the Desert: Of Soldiers and Tourists in the Spanish Sahara, 1960s-1970s
In the 1960s and 1970s, it was hoped that tourism in the Spanish Sahara (today Western Sahara) would become "a source of wealth" both for Sahrawis and Spaniards. Indeed, travel agencies from northern Europe increasingly included the Spanish Sahara in their holiday packages for the nearby Canary Islands. This article explores the experiences, expectations and gendered rhetoric of modernity and tradition in relation to tourism in the Spanish Sahara…
Introduction: Violence, Migration, and Gender in the Portuguese- and Spanish-Speaking World, 1945–2019
This special issue on violence, migration, and gender in the Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking world brings together specialists on the Iberian colonies in Africa as well as scholars focusing on the domestic impacts of decolonisation in Spain and Portugal to this day. The articles in the issue focus on social change broadly understood, analysed through a historical and anthropological lens. For the first time, this endeavour brings together questi…
Beyond Resistance and Collaboration: The “Bargains” of Cooperation in the Spanish Sahara, 1950s–1970s
Violence and Gender in Africa's Iberian Colonies: Feminizing the Portuguese and Spanish Empire, 1950s–1970s
Frequent Deaths: The Colonial Development of Concentration Camps Reconsidered, 1868–1974
This article sheds new light on the development of concentration camps in colonial warfare in the longue durée from 1868 to 1974. Introducing different examples of forced removal and deportation in the Spanish and Portuguese empires, the analysis emphasizes their interrelation, highlighting possible transfers of knowledge that have been neglected in comparative discussions. Specifically, the article reassesses the Cuban experience of concentratin…
Globale Machtkonflikte und Kriege: Festschrift für Stig Förster zum 65. Geburtstag
Diese Festschrift ist dem Historiker Stig Förster gewidmet, der sich insbesondere in der modernen Militärgeschichte und der Imperialismusforschung einen Namen gemacht hat. Mit der Betonung globaler Prozesse und dem Einbezug außereuropäischer Akteure nahm Förster bereits zu Beginn der 1990er Jahre einige der Kernelemente der Globalgeschichte vorweg. In diesem Band werden seine beiden Forschungsgebiete durch namhafte Autorinnen und Autoren zusammen…
Españolizar desde la raíz? La formación de una élite femenina de cooperación en el “pequeño imperio español”, c. 1960-1975
Investigaciones recientes señalan que no resulta fácil determinar el impacto cultural de la llamada “acción españolizadora” en las colonias africanas durante el siglo XX. ¿Se quedaron frustradas tanto las intervenciones de la iglesia como del estado? Sin embargo, surge en este contexto la pregunta acerca de los criterios para medir el éxito o el fracaso de lo que en su día se solía llamar la “hispanización” de los territorios africanos. La ambici…
The Colonial Development of Concentration Camps (1868–1902)
The forced labour and extermination camps established in Europe during the Second World War gave the meaning to the term ‘concentration camp’ which it has for the general public today. But the practice of concentrating civilians in guarded camps or centres, specifically as part of a counter-guerrilla military strategy during wartime, long predated and outlasted the Second World War. In the light of fresh research, this article looks comparatively…
