4.9/5 (29253 ratings)

Description:This book addresses a notable gap in the knowledge of Portuguese colonial administration and the fiscal policies and practices implemented in its 'third' African empire, particularly in Angola, Guinea and Mozambique. In recent years, the question of colonial taxation has become a topic in the debate on empire and colonialism, and has in recent years led to a comparative, long-term focus on the impact of fiscal policies in colonial and post-colonial economies and states in Africa. Given that former Portuguese colonies in Africa have been largely absent from this debate, this book offers new perspectives on fiscal administration in an era of empire building which had a decisive impact on the lives of African populations. Besides dealing with the economic and financial aspects of colonial rule, the book interprets the social experience of local populations through their interaction with colonial institutions. Based on a thorough and probing qualitative and qualitative analysis of published and unpublished data, it places taxation in the broader context of the complex relations between rulers and ruled in these territories for a fifty year period until the end of WWII. As such, the book engages with ongoing debates on political, economic and social transformations in Africa, and provides a key contribution to research addressing the relevance of colonial interventions for post-colonial developments in Africa.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
