Although Gold Coast Africans in the pre-colonial period believed that supernatural forces were the final causes of diseases, they were also clearly aware of the health implications of indiscriminate defecation and other environmental pollutants. Two types of latrines existed in the Gold Coast to displace excrement beyond the healthful space of the community. One existed inside the house, which European writers referred to as privy huts. The second type was communal latrines located on the outskirts of the town boundary. Irrespective of the true conditions, European adventurers and later colonial officials viewed the Gold Coast through the prism of the racial politics of the “civilizing mission.” They conceived toileting techniques and practices as well as the management of excrement among Africans as “primitive,” unhygienic, and therefore, anathema to “civilization.” This article examines the provision of latrines and the management and disposal of human excrement in the southern Gold Coast during the colonial period. It demonstrates that despite European claims to superior toileting techniques, latrines provided by the colonial administration before the twentieth century were mostly ad hoc, inadequate, very basic, and inefficient. Similarly, colonial technologies for disposing excrement proved inefficient. Thus, the management of human waste in the Gold Coast posed technocratic barriers to public health and highlighted the limits of colonial measures and technologies.

This article seeks to illustrate the emergence and significance of permanent exile in the latter years of British rule in Kenya. Drawing on concepts of the “state of exception” in the imperial context, the analysis places Kenyan policy into a longer history of penal practice. Exile as a mode of punishment was a permanent fixture in the repertoire of the British Empire as a method of controlling rebellious subjects. In Kenya, it was a tool to ostracize “troublemakers” from their home community, stabilizing the body politic in fractious moments. However, during the State of Emergency declared against the anti-colonial Mau Mau movement, the legal and spatial production of spaces of exception, settlements in the far-flung corners of the colony, reached its apotheosis. Drawing on long histories of colonial banishment, and specific legal precedents shrouded in liberal language, administrators hoped to make Kenya safe for a loyalist ascendancy by excising the “irreconcilables.” Critically, permanent exile was deemed necessary for a section of the population “infected” with Mau Mau ideology. In large exile settlements, rebellious subjects were expected to be remade into pacified workers. Colonial correspondence, as well as the petitions of the displaced, reveal the production of exile during these years as well as its misdiagnosis of the various imaginations of the exiled. “Settlers,” at exile camps like Hola, retained an autonomous vision of “land and freedom,” refusing their forced migration, and eventually precipitating the collapse of the scheme.

Though pilgrims were purportedly sacred travelers, their actual identities and motivations for travel were far from certain. Connotations with criminality and fraud also ran deep. Beginning with a strange case in which an epileptic French priest traveling to Santiago de Compostela was arrested and investigated as an alleged spy, this article considers the ambiguities surrounding pilgrim identity and the difficulty communities had in determining intention and motivation. Drawing upon secular and church records from Navarre, Aragon, and Gipuzkoa, this article examines the methods courts employed to reveal or impose identities, including using complex forensic techniques such as building a blind criminal lineup, associative triangulation of place and person, and relying upon medical and linguistic evaluation. In many cases, these processes of evidence gathering and particularly the idea that suspects could be definitively identified runs contrary to our understanding of the lack of sophistication of early modern criminal procedure and epistemology.
