Mapping Colonial Conquest: Australia and Southern Africa
Australia and Southern Africa
Norman Etherington
In Mapping Colonial Conquest, cartography is revealed to be the product of powerful social formations â?? fiscal, dynastic, military, commercial, and imperial â?? informing not only where we see ourselves in the world, but also how our cultural, historical, and economic identities have developed over time. This book is a cross-disciplinary survey of the history of cartography in Australia and Southern Africa and charts the trajectories of both colonial conquest and mapping technologies in both regions.
