Merchant Capital and Economic Decolonization, The United Africa Company 1929-1989 1994, Clarendon Press Oxford 832 Pages Book is in a good condition with some creasing to the dust cover (see photos), pages are in good clean and unmarked condition, the original shop sticker price is still attached to the dust cover The United Africa Company (UAC), formed in 1929 by the fusion of the Niger Company and the African and Eastern Corporation, was by far the largest single commercial organization in West and Equatorial Africa, and thus central to modern African economic history. This is the first detailed account to be published and one which fills a serious gap in the literature. It was not commissioned by the company (now reabsorbed into Unilever) but the author had full access toall confidential material in the UAC and Unilever archives and complete freedom in what he wrote. The book is not intended to be primarily a company history but uses the UAC as a focal point for detailed study of how the role of foreign merchant capital changed in response to economic and politicaldevelopments in Black Africa during this critical half century.
