Abstract
Examines the (post-)colonial background of three objects that are historically associated with Zurich: a porcelain figure depicting a slave being sold; Zürcher Rösti with sliced meat (a dish containing potatoes); and the children's classic "Der Schweizerische Robinson" (i.e. "The Swiss Family Robinson"), which was originally published in Zurich.
