  • Trade, War and Empire: British Merchants in Cuba, 1762-17961
    Nikolaus Böttcher Trade, War and Empire: British Merchants in Cuba, 1762-17961 In the late afternoon of 4 March 1762 the British war fleet left the port of Spithead near Portsmouth with the order to attack and conquer “the Havanah”, Spain’s main port in the Caribbean. The decision for the conquest was taken after the new Spanish King, Charles III, had signed the Bourbon family pact with France in the summer of 1761. George III declared war on Spain on 2 January of the following year. The initiative for the campaign against Havana had been promoted by the British Prime Minister William Pitt, the idea, however, was not new. During the “long eighteenth century” from the Glorious Revolution to the end of the Napoleonic era Great Britain was in war during 87 out of 127 years. Europe’s history stood under the sign of Britain’s aggres­ sion and determined struggle for hegemony. The main enemy was France, but Spain became her major ally, after the Bourbons had obtained the Spanish Crown in the War of the Spanish Succession. It was in this period, that America became an arena for the conflict between Spain, France and England for the political leadership in Europe and economic predominance in the colonial markets. In this conflict, Cuba played a decisive role due to its geographic location and commercial significance. To the Spaniards, the island was the “key of the Indies”, which served as the entry to their mainland colonies with their rich resources of precious metals and as the meeting-point for the Spanish homeward-bound fleet.

  • Effects of Flood Mitigation Measure: Lessons from Dhaka Flood Protection Project, Bangladesh
    Vol. 24, No. 6 Asian Profile December, 1996 Effects of Flood Mitigation Measure: Lessons from Dhaka Flood Protection Project, Bangladesh BHUIYAN MONWAR ALAM Research Associate LETECIA N. DAMOLE Research Associate and EBEL WICKRAMANAYAKE Associate Professor Regional & Rural Development Planning Human Settlements Development Program School of Environment, Resources and Development Asian Institute of Technology Bangkok, Thailand Introduction Although, Bangladesh is subjected to perpetual floods every year, she suffered two of the most serious and devastating floods on record in 1987 and 1988 which lasted from later part of August to first part of September. Vast areas of the country including the Capital City of Dhaka with a population of about 4.8 million were flooded to an unprecedented degree with flood levels 1.5 m higher than normal for periods up to four weeks. In Dhaka City, it is estimated that about 200 sq km (77 per cent of the total area of 260 sq km) was submerged to depths ranging from 0.3 m to over 4.5 m (FAP 8B, 1991). About 2.4 million people (50 per cent of the city population) were directly affected by these floods. Conservative estimates of the floods suggest that loss due to annual flood is about TkI 250 milhon, and the damages to a 10-year (return period) flood and a 40-year (return period) flood are Tk 530 million and Tk 750 million, respectively (Bangladesh Water Development Board, Undated). Following the floods of 1988 the Government of Bangladesh (GOB) established a National Flood Protection Committee in October 1988 which proposed to build a system comprising of embankments and flood walls around Dhaka City to protect the intrusion of flood water from the surrounding rivers and drain out the internal water caused by rainfall.
