Description
Colonialism in Global Perspective by Kris Manjapra explores the complex and interconnected histories of colonialism across the globe over the past 500 years. This comprehensive work examines how colonialism has shaped our modern world, from war and militarization to extractive economies, migrations, and diasporas. Manjapra weaves together a rich tapestry of stories, revealing the diverse ways in which colonized peoples have resisted and responded to colonial forces. By exploring the entwined histories of conquest, settler colonialism, racial slavery, and empire, Manjapra sheds light on the enduring role of colonial power and freedom struggle in shaping our contemporary world. This book offers a nuanced understanding of the global implications of colonialism, providing valuable insights into the ongoing legacies of colonialism that continue to shape our world today.
