"The image of Sweden is one of a small, democratic and peace-loving country without the moral burden of a colonial past. However, in this Current African Issues publication, the notion that Sweden lacks a colonial past in Africa is brought into question. At the Berlin Conference 1884-85, the rules for colonisation of Africa were agreed upon among a handful of white men. With the blessing of King Oscar II, the united kingdoms of Sweden-Norway participated in the Berlin conference, ratified the resulting convention and signed a trade agreement with King Leopold's International Congo Association. Thereafter, hundreds of Swedish militaries, seamen and missionaries took an active part in the brutal colonial project in the Congo. What was Sweden-Norway really doing at the Berlin Conference and in the ensuing Scramble for Africa ? Is it now time to re-assess Swedish identity in relation to Africa, an identity so far centered on colonial innocence ? Dr DAVID NILSSON is a researcher at the Division of History of Science, Technology and Environment, Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden. His research focuses on global long term perspectives on sustainable development in Africa." -- Abstract.

In the late 19th century, a group of men in Berlin decided the fate of an entire continent. The scramble for Africa, culminating in the infamous Berlin Conference, laid the groundwork for the European colonization of Africa, irrevocably changing its history and destiny. "The Berlin Conference: How Europe Divided Africa and Ignited a Curse" delves into the dramatic events that led to the partitioning of Africa by European powers. Witness the power plays, negotiations, and political maneuvering in Berlin's opulent halls. The narrative takes a tight turn when it introduces Otto, a German participant in the conference, and Adia, a beautiful woman from a village in the Congo. Their star-crossed love story unfolds against the backdrop of the colonial era, illuminating the human stories behind historical events. Discover the story of the curse laid upon the European colonizers by a village elder, a curse believed to have shaped the destinies of Otto's lineage and the generations of Africans and Europeans that followed. The tale explores the African resistance, the deceptions of the Europeans, and the devastating impact of their false promises. The book finally reflects on the enduring legacy of the Berlin Conference, the continuous struggle of African nations to overcome the effects of colonization, and the essential role of understanding and acknowledging Europe's part in shaping Africa's past and present. An enthralling journey through history, love, and betrayal, "The Berlin Conference: How Europe Divided Africa and Ignited a Curse" is a poignant reminder of the human cost of greed and the indomitable spirit of those who resist oppression.
