dc.descriptionA significant shift in both imperial and mission historiography has emerged in recent times as the ideology, which prompted missionary enterprise, is (re)conceptualized in the context of imperialism. Indeed, critical and nationalist approaches to African history and a narrative of collaboration, which underlies the work of many Africanist scholars, have increasingly characterized Christian missions as agents of colonial governments.1 Few will debate the historical role of missionaries in extending the frontiers of empire and their contribution to the remaking of African societies, yet the depictions of Africa’s encounter with Europe since the nineteenth century have not often emphasized the centrality of the collaborations between missions and imperial authority as much as the centrality of the colonized population, who in most cases straddled different ideological frontiers.-
