Recenzii
An intricate analysis of the intellectual connections and professional networks linking successive generations of leading French empire administrators. This work explains, not only the derivations of colonial knowledge, but the flawed presumptions on which it rested. A powerful reminder of the dangers intrinsic to conceptions of civilizational hierarchy, Leonard's work pulls apart the threads of France's cultural imperialism.
This is an important book, offering a new approach to the production of knowledge about African societies under French colonialism. Leonard demonstrates the ways in which French ethnographers and colonial administrators relied upon unacknowledged African interlocutors whose views deeply influenced their work. A major reference point for the scholarship on Francophone Africa.
