A Sri Lankan Paradox: Our Country is a Reflection of Ourselves

A Sri Lankan Paradox: Our Country is a Reflection of Ourselves

There was once a man that’d been wounded by a poisoned arrow. And when his family wanted to find a doctor to help him, the man said no. The mortally wounded man said that before any doctor tried to help him, he wanted to know who had attacked him.

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.
