Missions, States, and European Expansion in Africa

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Thus, "Missions, States, and European Expansion in Africa" transcends the narrow boundaries that often separate the role of these two elements of European encounter to argue that missionary endeavors and official colonial actions could all be conceptualized as hegemonic institutions, in which both pursued the same civilizing mission, even if they adopted different strategies in their encounter with African societies.

---

This volume uses a wide range of perspectives to address the intersection between missions, evangelism, and colonial expansion across Africa.
