Barbed-Wire Imperialism
Britain's Empire of Camps, 1876-1903
Langbeschreibung
"This book is highly original, timely, and overdue in the best sense of that word. No one has undertaken to show how and why the concentration camp as a form and as an ideology emerged as a constituent part of imperial governance. As with all good histories that begin by examining phenomena cloaked in 'state of exception' arguments, this one reveals the commonplace character of camps in several, often linked, spaces of imperial dominion and settlement."--Antoinette Burton, author of The Trouble with Empire: Challenges to Modern British Imperialism
