Produktbeschreibung
This book tells the story of Jean Pierre Jouret, a colonial administrator who lived in Togo from 1920 to 1934. The study of his life and his career allows us to understand an important period of the French colonization in Africa and in Togo in particular. The presence of our character gives a critical and crossed glance on the functioning of the French administration in the colonies of Africa but also sheds light on the various relations established and maintained or not between the colonial administrators and the Togolese women. These mixed relationships open the way to the problem of miscegenation and crossbreeding in a colonial situation, which generates identity problems for the children of these unions during colonization and after independence. The objective of this book is to understand one of the realities of colonization in the construction of an identity.
