Although it lasted only thirty years, German colonial rule dramatically transformed South West Africa. The colonial government not only committed the first genocide of the twentieth century against the Herero and Nama, but in their efforts to establish a model colony and racial state, they brought about even more destructive and long-lasting consequences. In this now-classic studyavailable here for the first time in Englishthe author provides an indispensable account of Germany's colonial utopia in what is present-day Namibia, showing how the highly rationalized planning of Wilhelmine authorities ultimately failed even as it added to the profound immiseration of the African population.
Jürgen Zimmerer is Professor of History at the University of Hamburg and was Founding President of the International Network of Genocide Scholars (INOGS).
