Description

Explore a significant era of British history with A Civilised Savagery: Britain and the New Slaveries in Africa, 1884-1926. Published by Routledge, this work examines the massive revival of anti-slavery protest that occurred in the two decades leading up to World War One. Unlike the earlier campaigns against the trans-Atlantic slave trade, these later abolitionists turned their attention toward the new slaveries emerging from European imperialism in Africa. This book provides a deep look into how humanitarianism functioned during this period. It examines the condemnation of coercive labor taxation, indentured servitude, and reported atrocities. By looking at these specific movements, the text helps readers understand the complex nature of British humanitarian efforts. It is an essential read for those interested in the history of imperialism, social sciences, and the evolution of human rights advocacy in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
