Suspicion, Imperial Rule, and Colonial Society in Interwar French West Africa
Omschrijving
A Vietnamese cook, a German journalist, and a Senegalese student. What did they have in common? They were all suspicious persons kept under surveillance by French colonial authorities in West Africa in the 1920s and 1930s. Colonial Suspects looks at the web of surveillance set up by the French government during the twentieth century as France's empire slipped into crisis.
