Description
Cold War Assemblages: Decolonization to Digital explores the interconnected histories of postcoloniality and the Cold War rivalry between the US and USSR. This book reveals how decolonizing world was shaped by Cold War discourses, policies, narratives, and paradigms.
The author weaves together a narrative that connects seemingly disparate themes, from Frantz Fanon to American multiculturalism, and from assassinations in the Third World to the afterlife of European colonialism. By examining these connections, the book sheds light on how the Cold War influenced the postcolony and created a compromised cultural sphere.
Through this speculative assemblage, Cold War Assemblages makes rich palimpsests visible, inviting readers to consider the complex relationships between decolonization, imperialism, and the Cold War. This thought-provoking book is a valuable contribution to our understanding of these pivotal periods in world history.
