Abstract

This chapters shifts focus away from the collective toward the individual, considering how indigenous veterans, war widows, and orphans evoked participation in the war to ensure access to state provision. It examines how actors often considered marginal in the colonial order set about claiming their legal entitlements from the state. Using the correspondence between individual claimants and the colonial administration, this chapter explores the complexity of the daily negotiation between the colonized, their intermediaries, and the apparatus of the colonial state. It considers the extent to which the colonial state’s conception of its duties to indigenous rights-holders and its attempts to meet these duties overlapped and/or contrasted with claimants’ understanding of their own rights. In doing so, it exposes the variety of forms of contact between the colonial state and its subjects that emerged as a result of the Great War and that heretofore have largely gone unstudied.
养老金、职位和请愿
本章将焦点从集体转移到个人,考虑土著退伍军人,战争寡妇和孤儿如何唤起参与战争以确保获得国家提供。它考察了在殖民秩序中经常被认为处于边缘地位的行动者如何着手从国家那里主张他们的合法权利。本章利用个人索赔人和殖民政府之间的通信,探讨了被殖民者、他们的中间人和殖民国家机构之间日常谈判的复杂性。它考虑了殖民国家对土著权利持有人的义务概念及其履行这些义务的努力与索赔人对自己权利的理解重叠和/或对比的程度。在这样做的过程中,它揭示了由于第一次世界大战而出现的殖民国家与其臣民之间各种形式的接触,这些接触在很大程度上尚未得到研究。
