This volume brings together key scholars from across the globe to explore anti-colonial and anti-imperial perspectives to help transform our ways of the looking at the world. Collectively, these chapters introduce new frameworks and methodologies that challenge the dominance of Western paradigms while highlighting the multiplicity of issues and themes emerging from colonialized countries, past and present.


By rethinking the foundational assumptions of European history and society, this book offers new frameworks to comprehend the past and future of social science and humanities, while inspiring readers to approach knowledge about human societies through a truly global, anti-colonial lens.
