Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book represents a fully researched historical text that gives a voice to the 1904 Commission of Enquiry that investigated the Congo Free State, which was under the rule of Belgium's King Leopold II. A scathing indictment of a brutal regime, the report lays bare the many forms of…oppression and abuse suffered by the Congolese people in this period. However, the author also provides the context for the behaviors and attitudes of the time. Essential reading for anyone interested in the colonial period in Africa, the book provides a unique insight into the birth of modern-day Congo, and a reminder of the human cost of unrestrained exploitation in the name of commercialism, imperialism and 'civilizing' missions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
