- This book is the outcome of more than twenty years’ research on Uganda, and makes use of both archival material and extended fieldwork. It draws on a range of ‘grey’ literature, both locally produced and published beyond Uganda. The book seeks to understand the ways in which a putatively artificial African nation can be understood as the outcome of organic, endogenous dynamics operating over la longue durée, and in so doing challenges received wisdom on Ugandan, and African, nationhood as a historical phenomenon. In so doing, the book deploys an innovative, layered approach to chronology.
