Description
Settler Colonialism: An Introduction by Sai Englert This accessible introduction to settler colonialism explores its history and characteristics, highlighting the ways in which it has shaped our global economic and political order. From the accumulation of resources and land, through Indigenous dispossession and genocide, to the development of racism as a form of social control, settler colonialism is deeply connected to many of the social ills we face today. Englert examines the ways in which settler colonialism continues to impact contemporary social movements and solidarity campaigns, and how struggles for justice and liberation are intertwined. By engaging with these issues, we can gain a deeper understanding of the complex and often fraught relationships between power, identity, and social justice. Through its unique histories and social relations, settler colonialism offers a powerful lens through which to view our global world, and to consider the ways in which we can work towards a more just and equitable future.
