Although it lasted only thirty years, German colonial rule
dramatically transformed South West Africa. The colonial government
not only committed the first genocide of the twentieth century
against the Herero and Nama, but in their efforts to establish a
"model colony" and "racial state," they brought about even more
destructive and long-lasting consequences. In this now-classic
study-available here for the first time in English-the author
provides an indispensable account of Germany's colonial utopia in
what is present-day Namibia, showing how the highly rationalized
planning of Wilhelmine authorities ultimately failed even as it
added to the profound immiseration of the African population.
