Notes
This book is part of the Series "Studies in the Social and Cultural History of Modern Warfare" from Cambridge University Press, General Editor Jay Winter of Yale University. During the war, about 30,000 German civilians and soldiers in African and Asian colonies were violently uprooted and imprisoned. Through its analysis of this internment, this book highlights the impact that the war had on the notion of common European "civilizing mission", and the image of empire in the Twentieth Century.
