Description
Colonialism: A Global History offers a fresh perspective on this complex and multifaceted topic. Lorenzo Veracini's work interprets colonialism as an unequal relationship characterised by displacement and domination, revealing its constitutive role in shaping global modernity. The volume explores the dynamism, adaptability, and resilience of colonialism, examining successive global 'waves' that have shaped institutions and prompted diverse responses from colonised communities. By tracing the evolution and reach of this mode of domination, Veracini provides an original definition of colonialism and sheds light on its contemporary relevance. This comprehensive history is ideal for students and scholars seeking to understand the complexities of globalisation, colonialism, and empire.
