The Business of Decolonization serves to deepen our understanding
of the end of the British empire, too often approached as if it was
a process shaped and experienced exclusively by nationalist and
imperial politicians and policy-makers. It explores British
companies' experience of, and involvement in, developments leading
to the transfer of power in Ghana, the former colony of the Gold
Coast. The book demonstrates that businessmen developed strategies
to cope with political change, reveals the extent of their
involvement in nationalist politics, and highlights the contrasting
responses of different companies to political and constitutional
developments in the colony. Drawing on an extensive range of
company, business association, personal, and official papers, the
book focuses primarily on company activity. However, it also
investigates relations between British firms and the colonial state
on the eve of Ghanaian independence, and examines the place of
British business interests in British policy.
