This book details the devastating Mau Mau civil war fought in Kenya during the 1950s and the legacies of that conflict for the post-colonial state. As many Kikuyu fought with the colonial government as loyalists joined the Mau Mau rebellion. Focusing on the role of those loyalists, the book examines the ways in which residents of the country's Central Highlands sought to navigate a path through the bloodshed and uncertainty of civil war. It explores the instrumental use of violence, changes to allegiances, and the ways in which cleavages created by the war informed local politics for decades after the conflict's conclusion. Moreover, the book moves toward a more nuanced understanding of the realities and effects of counterinsurgency warfare. Based on archival research in Kenya and the United Kingdom and insights from literature from across the social sciences, the book reconstructs the dilemmas facing members of society at war with itself and its colonial ruler.
飞机上补完硕士最后一本书,"忠王派"视角下的肯尼亚非殖民化史。Branch反对Elkins的种族灭绝论而将Mau Mau定性为一场内战,忠-茅的分野也并非源自年龄、阶级属性,而是在不断升级的暴力循环中的被迫站队。在英国的政策下,效忠比叛乱更能满足肯尼亚人对土地和自足的共同执念,才是前者胜利的原因。虽然相比Elkins的连篇控诉本书有些轻描淡写,Branch先森文字流畅阅读感极好也想多打点分
