Postcolonial Politics

Postcolonial Politics is dedicated to exploring the manifold ways in which contemporary politics and culture continue to be shaped by the legacies of colonialism, including its ongoing manifestations in the forms of neocolonialism, racism, global inequality and climate crisis. We are particularly interested in looking at novel forms of political organisation, innovative ideas and subjectivities that question received understandings of our social order.
