Administration and Taxation in Former Portuguese Africa

1900-1945

By: Philip J. Havik,Alexander Keese,Maciel Santos

This book addresses a notable gap in the knowledge of Portuguese colonial administration and the policies implemented in the main territories of its ""third"" African empire: Angola, Mozambique and Guinea.

Silences and Soundbites

The Gendered Dynamics of Trade and Brokerage in the Pre-colonial Guinea Bissau Region

By: Philip J. Havik

Set in the pre-colonial Guinea Bissau region, Silences and Soundbytes deals with the largely ignored roles women - and men - played as traders and brokers in Afro-Atlantic trade settlements emerged after first contact in the fifteenth century.

It holds that the formation of settlement communities that operated the relay trade along the region's many rivers between the region's hinterland and the coast created opportunities for enterprising and well-connected women.
