Yet few know that most of these initiatives emerged from decades of German colonial rule. This book gives the first full account of Tanzanian wildlife conservation up until World War I, focusing upon elephant hunting and the ivory trade as vital factors in a shift from exploitation to preservation that increasingly excluded indigenous Africans. Analyzing the formative interactions between colonial governance and the natural world, The Nature of German Imperialism situates East African wildlife policies within the global emergence of conservationist sensibilities around 1900.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 229mmItem Length: 152mmItem Weight: 671gAuthor: Bernhard GissiblGenre: HistoryBook Series: Environment in History: International PerspectivesTopic: Science Nature & MathRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
