内容説明
This story of Kenya in the decade before the outbreak of the Mau Mau emergency presents an integrated view of imperial government as well as examining the social and economic causes of the Kikuyu revolt. Dr. Throup combines traditional Imperial History with its emphasis on the high politics of \u201cThe Official Mind\u201d in the Colonial Office or in Government House with the new African historiography that concentrates on the people themselves. Sir Philip Mitchell was the proconsul chosen to reassert metropolitan authority. Under Kenyatta's leadership the Kenya African Union mobilized a popular constituency among the peasantry. In Nairobi the Kikuyu street gangs linked up with the militant Kikuyu trade unions, led by Fred Kubai and Bildad Kaggia, to challenge Kenyatta's leadership. The Mau Mau movement, as it was called by the government, was an alliance between three groups of discontented Kikuyu: the urban unemployed and destitute, the dispossessed squatters from the White Highlands and the tenants and members of the junior clans in the Kikuyu reserves.
The revolt was a dominating factor in convincing the conservative imperial government that the cost of repression in the African colonies was not worth the troops and resources.

内容説明
Analysis of the roots of Mau Mau in post-war Kenya.
This story of Kenya in the decade before the outbreak of the Mau Mau emergency presents an integrated view of imperial government as well as examining the social and economic causes of the Kikuyu revolt. The author combines traditional imperial history with its emphasis on the high politics of 'the official mind' in the Colonial Office or Government House with an African historiography which concentrates on the people themselves.
Under Kenyatta's leadership the Kenya African Union mobilised a popular constiuency among the peasantry. In Nairobi the Kikuyu street gangs linked up with militant trade unionists to challenge Kenyatta's leadership. The revolt which emerged was a dominant factor in convincing the conservative imperial government that the cost of repression in the African colonies was too high in troops, money and resources.
