Just or Injust: Scholarly Attitudes on the Moral Legacy of British Response to the Mau Mau Rebellion

Abstract

This paper was originally written for Dr. Sarah Walshaw’s History 344 course Themes in Modern East Africa. The assignment asked students to write a literature review on the historiography of an important event in East African history. The literature review was not intended to be exhaustive of all scholarly works written about a selected topic but rather to explore the historiography in a limited way by framing a specific question or theme. The paper uses Chicago citation style.
