Colonial Captivity during the First World War: Internment and the Fall of the Ge

Description: Colonial Captivity during the First World War by Mahon Murphy Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This study fills a vital gap in our knowledge of internment of German citizens in African and Asian colonies during the First World War, allowing a deeper understanding of the global reach of the conflict. It explores the implications for the collapse of empires during the twentieth century. Publisher Description With the outbreak of war in 1914, an estimated 30,000 German civilians in African and Asian colonies were violently uprooted and imprisoned. Britains First World War internment of German settlers seriously challenged the structures that underpinned nineteenth-century imperialism. Through its analysis of this internment, this book highlights the impact that the First World War had on the notion of a common European civilising mission and the image of empire in the early twentieth century. Mahon Murphy examines the effect of the war on a collective European colonial identity, perceptions of internment in the extra-European theatres of war, and empires in transition during war. Policymakers were forced to address difficult questions about the future rule of Germanys colonies and the nature of empire in general. Far from a conflict restricted to European powers, the First World War triggered a worldwide remaking of ideas, institutions and geopolitics. Author Biography Mahon Murphy is Research Fellow at the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science at the Graduate School of Law, Kyoto University, Japan.
