Congress proceedings of a conference organised during the Brussels' World Exhibition of 1897. King Leopold II who recently had acquired ''The Congo State ''was the main instigator of this conference.

De Lanesson ; '' Observations sur les cultures coloniales et l'utilisation des vagabonds dans les colonies''. Capitaine Haillot ; '' L'armée considérée comme agent d'assimilation dans l'expansion coloniale''. .
