Postcolonial Studies

How does alien cultural domination affect the oppressed? This question is answered in the present introduction to postcolonial literary studies, the first volume to study postcolonial theories from all continents. Its topics range from German debates about repatriation and the relationship between Windhoek and Auschwitz to migration literature, Anglo-American and Australian analyses of (post-)colonial discourses, Latin-American decolonial critique, and Caribbean, African, and South-Asian cultural theories. This new type of introduction covers inner-European colonialisms from Bosnia to Russia while also outlining Ukrainian debates on decolonisation and highlighting the postcolonial controversy over Israel and Gaza.
