Unpopular Sovereignty: Rhodesian Independence and African Decolonization
ISBN: 9780226235196 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In 1965 the white minority government of Rhodesia (after 1980 Zimbabwe) issued a unilateral declaration of independence from Britain, rather than negotiate a transition to majority rule. In doing so, Rhodesia became the exception, if not anathema, to the policies and practices of the end of empire. In "Unpopular Sovereignty," Luise White shows that the exception that was Rhodesian independence did not, in fact, make the state that different from new nations elsewhere in Africa: indeed, this history of Rhodesian political practices reveals some of the commonalities of mid-twentieth-century...

ISBN: 9780520217041 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 368 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. During the colonial period, Africans told each other terrifying rumors that Africans who worked for white colonists captured unwary residents and took their blood. In colonial Tanganyika, for example, Africans were said to be captured by these agents of colonialism and hung upside down, their throats cut so their blood drained into huge buckets. In Kampala, the police were said to abduct Africans and keep them in pits, where their blood was sucked. Luise White presents and interprets vampire stories from East and Central Africa as a way of understanding the world as the storytellers did....

The Assassination of Herbert Chitepo: Texts and Politics in Zimbabwe
ISBN: 9780253216083 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 160 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. On March 18, 1975, Herbert Chitepo, an African nationalist in exile and chairman of the war council that struggled to liberate Zimbabwe from white-ruled Rhodesia, was killed by a car bomb. Since then, there have been four confessions and at least as many accusations about who was responsible. In The Assassination of Herbert Chitepo, Luise White does not set out to resolve questions about who was accountable for this horrible murder. Instead, in a style that is as much murder mystery as it is history writing, she uncovers what is at stake in the various confessions and why Chitepo's...
