Colonialism and Underdevelopment in East Africa: The Politics of Economic Change 1919-1939 (Studies in East African Society and History) - Softcover
This book provides a detailed analysis of the political and economic theories of colonialism in East Africa. It reviews the politics of aid, budgets and markets, and examines the impact of economic policy at a local level using Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika as case histories. Dr. Brett concludes that British colonial policy was not just a muddled empirical resolution of different interests, but a reconciliation and adjustment of those interests within an overall and ideologically agreed framework. He maintains that the efforts of this policy were inimical to the economic development of East Africa.

From the rear cover: "This is an original and provoking study of the development of public policy in key areas of economic change in East Africa during the interwar period. [Brett] argues that during this period it was the economic debates on railways, tariffs and marketing policies rather than the political questions such as franchise and closer union which were more important for the future of East Africa. [He emphasizes] the provision of capital, the organization of markets, the restructuring of agriculture and the development of secondary industry.
