Administrators as political officers under colonial rule, 1914-51
Abstract
Let it be admitted at the outset that European brains, capital and energy have not been. . . expended in developing the resources of Africa from motives of pure philanthropy; that Europe is in Africa for the mutual benefit of her own industrial classes and of the native races in their progress to a higher plane; that the benefit can be made reciprocal and that it is the aim and desire of civilized administration to fulfil this dual mandate. Lord Lugard (1922) 1
