Iain Jackson: Architecture, Empire, and Trade, Gebunden

Klappentext

"This open access book tells a new and untold history of the architecture of West Africa in the colonial era, as revealed for the first time through the archives of the United Africa Company (UAC). With unprecedented archival access, it reproduces a rich photographic collection of streetscapes, buildings, and interiors to piece together the architectural legacy of this violent period of transnational extraction. The result is an insightful reflection on how architecture manifests power, culture, and identity in colonial and post-colonial contexts.
