Description

Explore a deep historical analysis of how the British Empire managed public health and social control. In this work, Philippa Levine examines the intersection of venereal disease, race, and politics through the lens of colonial governance. The book investigates how prostitutes across the British Empire were held responsible for the spread of disease among soldiers and sailors, often bearing the brunt of strict contagious disease ordinances passed by the British government. By analyzing how authorities enforced these laws in four specific colonial sites from the 1860s through the end of the First World War, this text reveals the impact of prejudice on legal operations. Levine shows how myths regarding the sexual practices of colonized peoples influenced law enforcement and helped justify colonial structures. This is an essential read for those interested in the history of medicine, colonial studies, and the social history of the British Empire.
