Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'Kenya From Within' is an authoritative and critical examination of the administrative and political landscape of the British East Africa Protectorate and the Kenya Colony during the early 20th century. Written by W. McGregor Ross, who served as a Director of Public Works in the region, the work offers a unique perspective from an official who became a vocal critic of the colonial administration's policies.The book delves into the complex issues of land ownership, the displacement of indigenous populations, and the controversial labor practices that defined the colonial era. Ross provides a detailed analysis of the political struggles between European settlers, the Indian community, and the African majority, highlighting the deep-seated tensions that shaped the colony's development. By documenting legislative changes and social shifts, 'Kenya From Within' serves as a vital historical primary source for understanding the mechanics of imperial rule and the early stirrings of political consciousness in East Africa.This comprehensive study remains essential reading for scholars and readers interested in African history, British imperialism, and the socio-economic foundations of modern Kenya. It stands as a powerful testament to the internal conflicts of the colonial system and the lived realities of those subject to its rule.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
