African Nationalism and Revolution
The Sources of Collective Rebellion

One of the most basic sources of conflict between colonialists and indigenous societies was the clash …
“Cotton is the Mother of Poverty”: Peasant Resistance to Forced Cotton Production in Mozambique, 1938–1961
During the past decade historians have increasingly come to recognize the dominant role that capitalism has played in shaping the twentieth-century history of Africa. One of the central features of Mozambique&s;s political economy was the large number of men from the rural areas who worked as migrant laborers in South Africa and Rhodesia. As in other parts of Africa, the Portuguese colonial regime sought to extract from its colonized people cash …
Mtunya: Famine in Central Tanzania, 1917–20
Famine, the acute lack of food for a population which leads to starvation, can be caused both by a failure in production and by structural inequalities in entitlements to that food which is available.

The Creation of Identity: Colonial Society in Bolivia and Tanzania
Many colonial regimes appropriate traditional symbols of power to enhance authority. In many cases this appropriation results in the hardening of more transitory political divisions among subject people into ethnic, national, or tribal ones.

For example, the East India Company (E.I.C.) and royal colonial government in India manipulated caste and religion to carry out…

The famine, which killed 30,000 of the region's 150,000 people, is more than just a good example of what John Iliffe has called ‘conjunctural poverty’. The Mtunya and the response to it b…
