Kitap, uzun yıllardır verdiğim askeri tarih derslerimin bir yansıması ve daha önceki çalı§ma­ lanmın, özellikle de European Warfare 1660-1815 (Londra ve New Ha­ ven, 1994) isimli kitabıının daha geli§tirilmi§ bir §eklidir. Giri§ bölümünde de açıkça belirtildiği gibi, birçok açıdan yeni yakla§ımlar getirmeyi amaç­ ladım. Bu çapta bir konu ve bu büyüklükte bir çalı§ma ile bu kitap yal­ nızca konuya bir katkı olarak görülmelidir: sava§, çok geni§ ve geli§en bir konudur ve tarih meselesinde olduğu gibi küresel bir bakı§ açısı ile dünya askeri tarihini özellikle de tek bir ciltte anlatırken kesin konu§uyormu§ gibi davranmak yanlı§ olur. Bu kitapta eğilimleri incelemenin yanı sıra önemli bilgileri vermeyi amaçladım. Bazı kısımlarda, özellikle tarihler bakımından büyük oranda bilgi bulunmaktadır, fakat bu bilgiler Batılı okurların da bilmediği olaylan biçimlendirmek ve ili§kilendirmek için gereklidir. Kitabın konusu sayfaların elverdiği oranda geni§ kapsamlı olarak ele alınmı§tır. Notlar, metine daha fazla yer kalması ve bu kitabın yazılmasını sağlayan bursun reklamını yapmayı değil daha geni§ okur 10 SAVAŞ VE DÜNYA kitlelerine ula§mayı amaçladığım için çok kısıtlı ölçüde kullanılml§, doğ­ rudan alıntılada ve mümkün olduğunca da eri§ilebilir ikincil literatür ile sınırlandırılmı§tır.

Bu kitabı yazmayı San Jacinto Devlet Sava§ Alanı Tarihi Parkı'nda bulunan Amerikan gemisi Texas'ı ziyaret etmemden kısa bir süre sonra bitirdim. Bu özel gün, yaptığım seyahatin beni Galveston'daki Gulf'e, Baton Rouge'd:iki Mississippi'ye ve Pontchartrain Gölü'nü a§an geçite götürmesi gibi en çok sevdiğim iki §eyi bir araya getirdi; birincisi, Amerika Birle§ik Devletleri'ni gezerek canlılıktan, çe§itlilikten ve Amerikalıların arkada§lıklarından keyif almak ve ikincisi, ı§ığın ve suyun tadını çıkar­ mak- dalgalanan denizde ı§ığın oyna§ması, altın ı§ık altında barı§ arayı§ı. 1 Giriş Tekrar olamaz. 1 770'lerde yazan Edward Gibbon'ın, çağda§ Avrupa'nın kendisinin barbar olarak nitelendirdiklerine yenilip yenilmeyeceğini de­ ğerlendirirken vardığı iyimser sonuç buydu. Gibbon'ın cevabı askeri iler­ leme ile ifade edilir: "Büyük toplar ve surlar artıkTatar atma kar§ı a§ılmaz bir engel halini almı§tır."1 Gibbon'ın analizi, bu kitapta, Avrupa askeri gücünün küresel boyutta yükseli§i ve Avrupalı olmayan halkların göre­ celi askeri geli§imi ve ba§arısı arasındaki ili§ki üzerinde yoğunla§an bir dizi çok önemli ve ili§kili meseleyi ele almak için ba§langıç noktası ola­ rak kullanılmaya çalı§ılmı§tır. Geni§ bir alandaki sosyal ve politik sis­ temlerin sava§ın sonsuz mücadelesine uyarlanabilirliğini gösterme ve harekat malzemesi ve 'yeni askeri tarih' ba§lığı altında toplanan daha kapsamlı konular arasında bir denge amaçlanmı§tır. Ba§langıçta iki noktayı ele alırrak gerekmektedir. İlk olarak, Avrupalı gücün yükseli§inin iyi bir §ey olduğu öne sürülmerni§ve zaferci bir yakla§ıtn 1) Edward Gibbon, The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, (yay. haz.) J. B. Bury (7 cilt, Londra, 1896-1900), IV, 166-7. 14 SAVAŞ VE DÜNYA kesinlikle benimsenmemi§tir. Bu, yalnızca sava§ın bölgesel kontrol açısın­ dan doğurduğu sonuçlar için değil, aynı zamanda çatı§manın doğası ve §ekilleri için de geçerlidir. İrısanları daha 'etkin biçimde' ya da acımasızca öldürmek medeniyetin arzulanan bir yönü veya geli§menin bir safhası ola­ rak görülmemektedir. Bu nokta önemle vurgulanmalıdır, çünkü bu gibi varsayımlar sava§la ilgili yazınların tümünde olmasa da çoğunda saklıdır. İkinci olarak, bu konu tabula rasa değildir; önemi göz önünde bulundu­ mlmasına rağmen konuya daha fazla ilgi gösterilmemi§ olması §a§ırtıcıdır. Bu durum, bir bakıma, son kırk yılda akademik çevrelerin askeri tarihi, özellikle de 1990 öncesini, nispeten ihmal ettiğini göstermektedir. Bir bakıma da, ister eylemsel isterse daha geni§ çaplı bir sosyal yönü olan sözde 'yeni askeri tarih' olsun, askeri tarih çoğunlukla Batı tarihine odak­ lanmı§ ve dünyanın diğer bölgelerindeki geli§meleri değerlendirirken bile çok fazla Avrupa merkezli olmu§tur. -Bu da birkaç etkene bağlıdır. Mevcut kaynaklar ve dil becerisi elbette çok önemlidir, ancak değerlendirmesi daha zor olan tutumlara ili§kin etkenler de öyledir. Bunlardan ilki ve veri ile dil meseleleriyle ili§kili olanı askeri tarihin çoğunluğuna hakim olan olumlu havadır. Bu ise hem eylemsel hem de 'yeni' askeri tarihle uğra§mak için geli§tirilen yakla§ımla­ rın tartl§malı sonuçları, modemAvrupalı askeri güçlerin bürokratik doğa­ sı, askeri tarihçi olan insan tipleri ve konunun 'kültürü' ile ba§a çıkabil­ mek için geli§tirilen yakla§ımların bir sonucudur. Aynca, daha kapsamlı küresel durumu anlamaya kar§ı bir isteksizlik ya da konuya klasik olarak Batının teknoloji vasıtasıyla zafer kazandığını söyle­ yen belirli açıklayıcı modelin bir i§levi olarak yakla§ma eğilimi vardır. Bu, entelektüel ve görsel açıdan, askeri tarihe "Rorke's Drift" yakla§ımı mese­ lesidir: teknoloji ve bir görev a§kıyla az sayıda Avrupalı pek çok Avrupalı olmayan 'diğer' askerleri yenebildi, hatta mahvetti. Avrupalı olmayanla­ rın askeri kültürleri büyük oranda göz ardı edildi ve edilmekte; bunun bir nedeni, meseleyi incelemede kar§ıla§ılan problemler, yani tarafsız 'akade­ mik' bir yakla§ımdır; diğeri ise, Avrupalı olmayan halkların eskiden oldu­ ğu gibi §imdi de anakronik ve kaybetmeye mahkum görünmeleridir. Aslında, Avrupalı olmayanlar geçmi§te ve günümüzde genellikle an­ cak Avrupalılada ili§kili olduğunda ve özellikle de Avrupalıların kullan­ dıkları silahları ve yöntemleri benimseyip benimsemedikleri söz konusu olduğunda askeri yönden ilgi görürler. Birincisi, "Plassey Yakla§ımi"na i§aret eder. Bu yakla§ımda,

Qui veut (encore) célébrer le “ père de l’impérialisme français ” ? Depuis la fin du XIX e siècle, Lille et le nord de la France célèbrent perpétuellement la mémoire du gén éral Louis Faidherbe. Des rues et des lycées portent son nom. Des statues triomphales se dressent en son hommage au cœur de nos villes. Il y a là, pourtant, un scandale insup portable. Car Faidherbe était un colonialiste forcené. Il a massacré des milliers d’Africains au XIX e siècle. Il fut l’acteur clé de la conquête du Sénégal. Il défendit toute sa vie les théories racistes les plus abjectes. Si l’on considère que la colonisa tion est un crime contre l’humanité , il faut alors se rendre à l’évidence : celui que nos villes honorent quotidiennement est un criminel de haut rang.

  • Looters Vs. Traitors: the Muqawama (“Resistance”) Narrative, and Its Detractors, in Contemporary Mauritania Elemine Ould Mohamed Baba and Francisco Freire
    Looters vs. Traitors: The Muqawama (“Resistance”) Narrative, and its Detractors, in Contemporary Mauritania Elemine Ould Mohamed Baba and Francisco Freire Abstract: Since 2012, when broadcasting licenses were granted to various private television and radio stations in Mauritania, the controversy around the Battle of Um Tounsi (and Mauritania’s colonial past more generally) has grown substantially. One of the results of this unprecedented level of media freedom has been the prop- agation of views defending the Mauritanian resistance (muqawama in Arabic) to French colonization. On the one hand, verbal and written accounts have emerged which paint certain groups and actors as French colonial power sympathizers. At the same time, various online publications have responded by seriously questioning the very existence of a structured resistance to colonization. This article, drawing pre- dominantly on local sources, highlights the importance of this controversy in study- ing the western Saharan region social model and its contemporary uses.

  • Crime, Punishment, and Colonization: a History of the Prison of Saint-Louis and the Development of the Penitentiary System in Senegal, Ca
    CRIME, PUNISHMENT, AND COLONIZATION: A HISTORY OF THE PRISON OF SAINT-LOUIS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PENITENTIARY SYSTEM IN SENEGAL, CA. 1830-CA. 1940 By Ibra Sene A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY HISTORY 2010 ABSTRACT CRIME, PUNISHMENT, AND COLONIZATION: A HISTORY OF THE PRISON OF SAINT-LOUIS AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE PENITENTIARY SYSTEM IN SENEGAL, CA. 1830-CA. 1940 By Ibra Sene My thesis explores the relationships between the prison of Saint-Louis (Senegal), the development of the penitentiary institution, and colonization in Senegal, between ca. 1830 and ca. 1940 . Beyond the institutional frame, I focus on how the colonial society influenced the implementation of, and the mission assigned to, imprisonment. Conversely, I explore the extent to which the situation in the prison impacted the relationships between the colonizers and the colonized populations. First, I look at the evolution of the Prison of Saint-Louis by focusing on the preoccupations of the colonial authorities and the legislation that helped implement the establishment and organize its operation. I examine the facilities in comparison with the other prisons in the colony. Second, I analyze the internal operation of the prison in relation to the French colonial agenda and policies. Third and lastly, I focus on the ‘prison society’. I look at the contentions, negotiations and accommodations that occurred within the carceral space, between the colonizer and the colonized people. I show that imprisonment played an important role in French colonization in Senegal, and that the prison of Saint-Louis was not just a model for, but also the nodal center of, the development of the penitentiary.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract That Most Perfidious Institution is a study of Africans - slaves and slave owners - and their central roles in both the expansion of slavery in the early nineteenth century and attempts to reform servile relationships in the late nineteenth century. The pivotal place of Africans can be seen in the interaction between indigenous slave-owning elites (aristocrats and urban Euro-African merchants), local European administrators, and slaves themselves. My approach to this problematic is both chronologically and geographically comparative. The central comparison between Senegal and the Gold Coast contrasts the varying impact of colonial policies, integration into the trans-Atlantic economy; and, more importantly, the continuity of indigenous institutions and the transformative agency of indigenous actors.

  • The West Indian Mission to West Africa: the Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963
    The West Indian Mission to West Africa: The Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963 by Bakary Gibba A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Bakary Gibba (2011) The West Indian Mission to West Africa: The Rio Pongas Mission, 1850-1963 Doctor of Philosophy, 2011 Bakary Gibba Department of History, University of Toronto Abstract This thesis investigates the efforts of the West Indian Church to establish and run a fascinating Mission in an area of West Africa already influenced by Islam or traditional religion. It focuses mainly on the Pongas Mission’s efforts to spread the Gospel but also discusses its missionary hierarchy during the formative years in the Pongas Country between 1855 and 1863, and the period between 1863 and 1873, when efforts were made to consolidate the Mission under black control and supervision. Between 1873 and 1900 when additional Sierra Leonean assistants were hired, relations between them and African-descended West Indian missionaries, as well as between these missionaries and their Eurafrican host chiefs, deteriorated. More efforts were made to consolidate the Pongas Mission amidst greater financial difficulties and increased French influence and restrictive measures against it between 1860 and 1935. These followed an earlier prejudiced policy in the Mission that was strongly influenced by the hierarchical nature of nineteenth-century Barbadian society, which was abandoned only after successive deaths

  • The French Model of Assimilation and Direct Rule - Faidherbe and Senegal –
    The French Model of Assimilation and Direct Rule - Faidherbe and Senegal – Key terms: Assimilation Association Direct rule Mission Dakar–Djibouti Direct Rule Direct rule is a system whereby the colonies were governed by European officials at the top position, then Natives were at the bottom. The Germans and French preferred this system of administration in their colonies. Reasons: This system enabled them to be harsh and use force to the African without any compromise, they used the direct rule in order to force African to produce raw materials and provide cheap labor The colonial powers did not like the use of chiefs because they saw them as backward and African people could not even know how to lead themselves in order to meet the colonial interests It was used to provide employment to the French and Germans, hence lowering unemployment rates in the home country Impacts of direct rule It undermined pre-existing African traditional rulers replacing them with others It managed to suppress African resistances since these colonies had enough white military forces to safeguard their interests This was done through the use of harsh and brutal means to make Africans meet the colonial demands. Assimilation (one ideological basis of French colonial policy in the 19th and 20th centuries) In contrast with British imperial policy, the French taught their subjects that, by adopting French language and culture, they could eventually become French and eventually turned them into black Frenchmen. The famous 'Four Communes' in Senegal were seen as proof of this. Here Africans were granted all the rights of French citizens.

  • British and French Styles of Influence in Colonial and Independent Africa
    British and French Styles of Influence in Colonial and Independent Africa: A Comparative Study of Kenya and Senegal Laura Fenwick SIS 419 002: Honors Capstone Dr. Patrick Ukata 23 April 2009 Fenwick 2 Introduction The goal of colonialism was universal: extract economic benefits for the colonizing government. However, France and England had fundamentally different approaches to their colonial rule. While England wanted to exploit resources and create a profitable environment for its settler communities, France espoused an additional goal of transforming the African populations within its sphere of influence into French citizens. Nowhere is this effort epitomized better than in Senegal. These different approaches affected the type of colonial rule and the post- colonial relationship in an elemental way. The two powers had many similarities in their colonial rule. They imposed direct rule, limiting rights of the African peoples. The colonial administrations established a complementary economy based on exporting raw goods and importing manufactured goods. They introduced European culture and taught their own history in schools. France, however, took the idea of a united French Empire a step further with the policy of assimilation. Reeling from the ideals of equality from the 1848 Revolution, the French Republic granted political rights and citizenship for francisé (Frenchified) Africans. Its rule in West Africa was characterized by an unprecedented degree of political representation for Blacks. The English government did not grant this amount of political rights until the final years of colonial rule, when international and domestic pressures for decolonization were mounting. French West African colonies enjoyed their close economic, political, and cultural ties with the metropole.

  • The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity
    The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity By Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction Of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Thomas Dandelet, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor Ignacio E. Navarrete Summer 2015 The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance, and Morisco Identity © 2015 by Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry All Rights Reserved The Granada Venegas Family, 1431-1643: Nobility, Renaissance and Morisco Identity By Elizabeth Ashcroft Terry Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California-Berkeley Thomas Dandelet, Chair Abstract In the Spanish city of Granada, beginning with its conquest by Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492, Christian aesthetics, briefly Gothic, and then classical were imposed on the landscape. There, the revival of classical Roman culture took place against the backdrop of Islamic civilization. The Renaissance was brought to the city by its conquerors along with Christianity and Castilian law. When Granada fell, many Muslim leaders fled to North Africa. Other elite families stayed, collaborated with the new rulers and began to promote this new classical culture. The Granada Venegas were one of the families that stayed, and participated in the Renaissance in Granada by sponsoring a group of writers and poets, and they served the crown in various military capacities. They were royal, having descended from a Sultan who had ruled Granada in 1431. Cidi Yahya Al Nayar, the heir to this family, converted to Christianity prior to the conquest. Thus he was one of the Morisco elites most respected by the conquerors.
