Description
This book examines the historical relationship between colonial violence and monuments in Africa, Europe, Asia, North America, and Australia. By exploring these locations in parallel, the authors highlight common themes and encourage comparison.
The study of colonial violence and its legacy through monuments is a complex and multifaceted topic. This book provides a nuanced analysis of this relationship across different regions, shedding light on the ways in which monuments have been used to commemorate, conceal, or challenge colonial histories.
