Nationalism

Asian and African nationalism The new nations The progress of nationalism in Asia and Africa is reflected in the histories of the Of the original 51 members of the After Political and religious differences Ambitions among new Asian and African nations clashed. The complex politics of the United Nations illustrated the problems of the new nationalism. The struggle with Dutch colonialism that brought the establishment of Indonesia continued with the UN mediation of the dispute over Many new nations, all sharing the same pride in independence, faced difficulties. As a result of inadequate preparation for self-rule, the first five years of independence in the Congo passed with no semblance of a stable government. The problem of widely different peoples and languages was exemplified in Nigeria, where an uncounted population included an uncounted number of tribes (at least 150, with three major divisions) that used an uncounted number of languages (more than 100

A New History of Asian Anti

International conferences are notoriously difficult to organize, all the more so when the aim is global revolution and the world’s empires oppose your agenda. When, starting in 1919, Vladimir Lenin convened the first congresses of the Communist International, some Bolsheviks were disappointed by the characters who turned up—old-fashioned socialists, trade unionists, and anarchists, coming with false papers, in disguise, under aliases, and all apparently expecting hotel rooms. The Russian revolutionary Victor Serge observed, “It was obvious at first glance that here were no insurgent souls.” Lenin kept a blinking electric light on his desk to cut meetings short. But one of the arrivals made an impression. “Very tall, very handsome, very dark, with very wavy hair,” Serge recalled. It was Manabendra Nath Roy, an Indian who was a founder of the Mexican Communist Party. When ducking imperial authorities, he used a method described by a comrade: “If you want to hide revolutionary connections . . . you had better travel first class.” Roy had cut an unusual path to Moscow. Born into a Brahmin family in West Bengal in 1887, he left India in his twenties on a series of missions to secure funds and weapons for an uprising against the British Raj. During the First World War, a group of Indian anti-imperialists wanted the Germans to open a second front against their common enemy. But Roy’s parleys with contacts in Java, China, and Japan yielded almost nothing. In Tokyo, he resolved to ...

There are numerous pages, papers and talks held about this topic. Then ideas conveyed revolved around the ideaology of African countries, varying cultures and most common factor, colonalism. As a South African, this is part of my heritage, defines my culture and my country. That being said, colonialism, being the prominent factor, was a by product of development of European countries, including trade and exploration, etc. The Analysis Let us consider 2 groups of people. Europeans (and Asians) aka Settlers and Africans. (This does generalise, but only for the sake of my question). Settlers were able to explore the world using boats, ships, etc. They were able to trade with far eastern countries. East Africa, was well known for trading with Arabic countries, Somalia, Mapungubwe, etc and a few others. The Question: Why did one group of people develop faster than the other. Once again, this is the development that lead to the era of colonisation and exploration. Why did Europeans and Asians develop faster than Africans, Native Americans, etc? This may end up being too vague of a question. "Develop" is a really general term. If you wanted to ask about industrialization, for example, that might help. But, also for example, peoples in the Pacific were exploring far and wide long before Europeans ever ventured there. Also, it's not clear what groups of people you want to compare. I think you need to clarify the question. Do you mean "develop" as in discover and implement technolog...
