German Colonization Past and Future : The Truth About the German Colonies

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'German Colonization Past and Future: The Truth About the German Colonies' is a compelling historical defense of German colonial policy and administration during the early 20th century. Written by Dr. Heinrich Schnee, the former Governor of German East Africa, the work provides a detailed analysis of Germany's role as a colonial power before the territories were reassigned under the Treaty of Versailles. Schnee addresses the contemporary criticisms leveled against German administration, presenting a counter-narrative that highlights the economic, social, and educational advancements made in territories such as Togo, Cameroon, and South West Africa.The text serves as both a historical record and a political argument, challenging the moral and legal justifications for the mandate system established by the League of Nations. By examining the infrastructure development and the relationship between the governing bodies and the indigenous populations, Schnee seeks to prove Germany's competency and right to maintain its overseas possessions. This work remains a significant primary source for understanding the geopolitical tensions of the interwar period and the specific rhetoric used in the debate over colonial reparations and international law.
