Description

This Routledge Studies in Cultural History volume examines the intersection of anthropological thought and racial theory in Belgium and the Congo between 1839 and 1922. The book traces how European anthropological frameworks shaped colonial understanding of African populations during a critical period of imperial expansion. It analyses the development of racial classification systems, the role of anthropologists in legitimising colonial rule, and the cultural and scientific debates that emerged in Belgian institutions. By focusing on the specific historical and geographical context of Belgium and its Congo colony, this work reveals how anthropology functioned as both an academic discipline and a tool of colonial ideology. Scholars of colonial history, the history of anthropology, cultural studies, and African history will find this comprehensive study essential for understanding how racial science developed in European thought and its devastating consequences in colonial territories.
