Eight months after the declaration
of a State of Emergency in October
1952,
the colonial authorities in Kenya
turned to London for additional help in
putting down the
Mau Mau
uprising.
With experience of civil—military
co-operation in the Second World
War, and internal security in Ireland,
India and Egypt, George Erskine was
well suited to lead renewed military
operations. Finding the Governor
indecisive and the European settlers
uncompromising, Erskine fashioned a
joint civil—military strategy based on
strict population control. Combining
large-scale offensive operations with
special forces techniques, his soldiers
sought to drive the
Mau Mau
out
of their forest bases and into the
inhabited areas. Here, measures such
as food control, forced villagisation,
collective punishments and frequent
mass interrogations were designed
to separate the militants from the
population, and to punish severely
those whose loyalty was in doubt.
Determined to prohibit blatant abuses
of ordinary people, Erskine nonetheless
found it almost impossible to prevent
beatings, torture and murder when his
strategy relied so heavily on fear.
