Colonial Meltdown

Northern Nigeria in the Great Depression

Beschreibung

Historians of colonial Africa have regarded the decade of Great Depression as a period of intense exploitation and colonial inactivity. This book challenges this conventional interpretation by mapping the determined, at times violent, yet instructive responses of Northern Nigerian people to the British colonial mismanagement of Great Depression.
