Descriere

This book explains how and why Belgium, a small but influential European country, was changed through its colonial activities in the Congo, from the first expeditions in 1880 to the Mobutu regime in the 1980s. It yields a better understanding of the Congo's past and present, and explains how the imperial experience influenced Belgian politics, diplomacy, economic activity and culture.
