The Medieval Pilgrimage Business
Although medieval pilgrimage has been the subject of extensive historical research, the economic and financial dimension has been somewhat neglected. This paper is an attempt to provide a synthesis of published and unpublished work on pilgrimage, focusing on the business management and promotional aspects of pilgrimage shrines. From the literature reviewed, it is clear that many ‘modern’ business practices were being widely used by pilgrimage cen…
A Comparative Reconsideration of the Namibian Bush War, 1966–89
Much of the literature on the decolonization of Namibia is set in a narrative mode and demonizes one or the other of the protagonists. This article, organized in a topical fashion, concerns the diplomatic, military, and economic facets of the Namibian war and draws upon the literature of comparable twentieth century colonial and anti-colonial wars in Algeria, Angola, Kenya, Mozambique, the Philippines, South Africa, Vietnam and Zimbabwe. It explo…
Pitfalls in the quest for South Sea rationality
offers three main criticisms of our article. 1These relate to the legal status of subscription receipts, the relevance of post-crash trading data and the appropriate treatment of counterparty risk.In sections i-iii we refute Shea's arguments, and in section iv we suggest some further areas for research. IIn an earlier paper Shea considered the legal status of subscription contracts issued by the South Sea Company. 2 He says, 'The subscriptions we…

The First Crash
For nearly three centuries the spectacular rise and fall of the South Sea Company has gripped the public imagination as the most graphic warning to investors of the dangers of unbridled speculation. Yet history repeats itself and the same elemental forces that drove up the price of South Sea shares to dizzying heights in 1720 have in recent years produced the global crash of 1987, the Japanese stock market bubble of the 1980s/90s, and the interna…
Financial markets can go mad
This paper explores investor behaviour during the South Sea Bubble-the first major speculative boom and bust on the stock markets. Previous literature debates whether investors during this episode acted rationally. Newly acquired data involving parallel markets for the South Sea Company's stock and subscription receipts are analysed, and widening valuation gaps are observed between these substitutable financial instruments. Rational explanations …

Writing a Wider War
Writing a Wider War presents a dramatically new interpretation of the role of Boer women in the conflict and profoundly changes how we look at the making of Afrikaner nationalism. African experiences of the war are also examined, highlighting racial subjugation in the context of colonial war and black participation, and showcasing important new research by African historians. The collection includes a reassessment of British imperialism and probi…

Reconfiguring white ethnic power in colonial Africa
This article explains the significance of the German community in Namibia from 1923 to 1950, when white minority rule flourished there, and demonstrates how links with Germany enhanced or detracted from their political capital and goals. Beginning with the 1923 South African‐German agreement concerning the status and welfare of that community, and ending with the 1950 Namibian elections, it shows that shifts in the ethnic composition of the Namib…

South Africa and the International Community
Ever since the discovery there of gold and diamonds in the last half of the nineteenth century, South Africa has engaged the rapt attention of the Western world. The saga of the Anglo-Boer War of 1899–1902, perhaps the last of the “gentlemen's wars,” and now the refurbished accounts of the gallant defense of Rorke's Drift in the AngloZulu War of 1879 have been fascinating material for both novelists and film scriptwriters. In addition, the histor…

Historical Dictionary of the Republic of Botswana
The idea of an historical dictionary relating to a country appears to be a good one. At the flick of a page one can find the relevant information on a particular subject without having to consult several reference books and wade through a lot of information that is not wanted. It is however very difficult to divide 'historical' from 'current' and much of the information given in this book of an economic and biographical nature is already out of d…
