Settler Colonialism in the Twentieth Century - Projects, Practices, Legacies (Paperback, New edition)

An invaluable addition to the growing literature in the field, this powerful and thought-provoking study presents a compelling new interpretation of twentieth-century imperialism. Compiled of selected essays, historians of Japan, Europe, Africa and the Middle East show how settler communities have shaped landholding policies, laws and race relations in colonized territories throughout the world. Elkins and Pedersen establish an analytical framework for understanding the impact of settler communities in contexts such as the European settler projects in Africa, expansionist efforts by the Japanese in Korea and Manchuria, Nazi attempts to settle ethnic Germans in Poland and contested settlements in Israel and Palestine. Settler Colonialism in the Twentieth Century is the crucial text for understanding the history of imperial expansion in the last hundred years.
