Epidemics and revolutions: The rinderpest epidemic in late 19th-century southern Africa (1993)

unapi

Description The rinderpest was a cattle epizootic in the African subcontinent between 1896 and 1898. “Like the cholera in Europe ... the rinderpest epizootic ... also failed to precipitate rebellions, or revolutions, even though it occurred in the most turbulent region of the continent during a tempestuous period of its history.”
