Impossible Missions?: German Economic, Military, and Humanitarian Efforts in Africa - Texts and Contexts

A study of the German presence in Africa in the modern period that exposes forms of cultural domination that derive from a philosophy of progress and 'good intentions'. Highlighting patterns of domination that did not disappear with decolonization, it disputes assumptions about why global inequality has not only persisted but increased.
