The Devil's Handwriting: Precoloniality and the German Colonial State in Qingdao, Samoa, and Southwest Africa - Chicago Studies in Practices of Meaning New edition

Germany's overseas colonial empire was relatively short-lived, lasting from 1884 to 1918. During this period, dramatically different policies were enacted in the colonies. Why did the same colonizing power act in such differing ways? This work tackles this question through a cross-cultural analysis of German colonialism.
