The Second World War Memorial in Zambia
Following the cessation of hostilities in Europe in 1945, a debate ensued in colonial Zambia on what was the best tribute to dedicate to its servicemen who had lost their lives in the Second World War. On the one hand, the colonial government advocated for conventional forms of a war memorial such as statues, obelisks, and triumphal arches. On the other side, African servicemen supported the idea of ‘living memorials’ in form of useful projects s…
The Rhodes-Livingstone Institute and Interdisciplinary Research in Northern Rhodesia (Zambia), 1937-1964
This article examines the rise of interdisciplinary research in Northern Rhodesia (colonial Zambia). It does this by exploring path breaking research conducted by the Rhodes-Livingstone Institute since its founding in 1937 up to the country's attainment of independence from Britain in 1964. The article argues that the rationale for the establishment of the research institute was due to the pressing need for knowledge owing to the emergence of soc…

This article examines how Northern Rhodesian ex-servicemen experienced home life after the Second World War, the problems they encountered, and the society into which they were reintegrated. Challenges faced by African veterans made them restless and discontented compared to European ex-servicemen who benefited from entrenched discriminatory racial practices. Using hitherto unexplored materials from the National Archives of Zambia, this article f…
Coerced African Labour for Food Production in Northern Rhodesia (Zambia) during the Second World War, 1942–1945
Like their colonial counterparts in other parts of Africa, Asia, and the Caribbean, some Africans in Northern Rhodesia experienced labour conscription during the Second World War. Civilian labour conscription in colonial Africa was revived during the war due to challenges faced by the Allied powers in recruiting labour for military, agricultural and industrial use. Although forced labour has a long and infamous history in Northern Rhodesia, it ha…
Migrant Women of Johannesburg
A Zambian Town in Colonial Zimbabwe
In March 1964 the entire African labour force at Wankie Colliery, “Wangi Kolia”, in Southern Rhodesia went on strike. Situated about eighty miles south-east of the Victoria Falls on the Zambezi River, central Africa’s only large coalmine played a pivotal role in the region’s political economy. Described by Drum , the famous South African magazine, as a “bitter underpaid place”, the colliery’s black labour force was largely drawn from outside colo…

Rubber Production in Northern Rhodesia during the Second World War, 1942-1946
The outbreak of the Second World War had profound effects on Africa. The immediate social, economic and political effects of the war on Africa were immense.[1][1] One of the most important economic effects of the war on African societies was the search for substitute products to replace or augment
