Introduction: Historical Biography and Rival African Nationalisms --Imagining the Nation: Methodism, History and Politics in Nkumbula's Early Years -- 'The Father of Zambian Politics' between Padmore and Maala-- The Explosion of Contradictions -- Nkumbula, UNIP and the Roots of Authoritarianism in Nationalist Zambia -- Resisting UNIP: Liberal Democracy and Ethnic Politics in Zambia's First Republic -- 'The Last BattleI Will Ever Fight': Nkumbula and the Drive towards the One-Party State--Epilogue: Nkumbula's Last Initiatives and Legacy.

This book transforms our understanding of the recent political history of Central Africa. It charts the complex life and thought of Harry Nkumbula (ca. 1917-1983), the first openly nationalist African politician in Northern Rhodesia and, later, the leader of parliamentary opposition during Zambia's multi-party First Republic. Based mainly on his personal papers and the newly opened archivesof UNIP, Zambia's ruling party between 1964 and 1991, the volume looks at how Nkumbula imagined a Zambian nation for the first time and, later, presented a liberal alternative to dominant state-led models of political and economic development. By exploring the trajectory of Nkumbula's ANC, a minority liberal party with strong ethnic roots, the book throws new light on the under-acknowledged fractiousness of Zambian nationalism and warns against reading African post-colonial politics solely in terms of clientelism.
