Publisher's Synopsis
""The Congo State Is Not A Slave State"" is a book written by Demetrius Charles Boulger in 1903 as a response to a pamphlet by E.D. Morel titled ""The Congo Slave State"". Boulger argues against Morel's claims that the Congo Free State, under the rule of King Leopold II of Belgium, was a slave state. Boulger provides evidence to support his argument that the Congo Free State was not a slave state, but rather a legitimate colony with a fair and just administration. He also criticizes Morel's sources and methods of obtaining information about the Congo Free State. The book provides a detailed analysis of the political and economic situation in the Congo Free State during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It sheds light on the controversy surrounding the Congo Free State and its treatment of the Congolese people.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
