The Colonial Police in British- & German-Eastafrica: A comparision 1885-1960

The book shows the different developments of the police in the neighboring colonies of British and German East Africa. The structures could not simply be transferred from the mother countries to the colonies. It was a sometimes difficult learning process for everyone involved, but one that was mastered well. After the First World War, the British colonial administration took over a large part of the well-educated Askaris.
