This landmark collection showcases the latest research in many areas of German colonialism. As a state-of-the-art expression of a vibrant field, German Colonialism in a Global Age will set a new benchmark and become a standard reference. -- A. Dirk Moses, author of German Intellectuals and the Nazi Past The volume offers both sophisticated historiographical reflection and rich empirical contributions. It is the best single volume on German colonialism. -- Lora Wildenthal, author of German Women for Empire, 1884-1945 German Colonialism in a Global Age is a solid contribution to the study of German imperialism. It expands the study of Germany's colonialist past beyond earlier scholarship. However, its greatest contribution is to provide the wider community of scholars a window (or perhaps more accurately, a number of windows) into current research into the nature of German colonialism as part of the larger European colonial venture. -- Theodore Nitz H-Diplo, H-Net Reviews
