“Ranglijsten maken leidt niet alleen af van de kern – hoe werkte kolonialisme écht, en wie betaalde daar de prijs voor, ook sinds de onafhankelijkheid – maar kan ook moeiteloos worden ingezet voor hedendaagse politieke agenda’s.” Uitstekende observatie!

@roelfrakking.bsky.social en ik schreven een opinie: 👉Pas als we de logica van koloniale onderdrukking en het verzet ertegen begrijpen, kunnen we inzien hoe kolonialisme zich telkens opnieuw een weg baant in onze wereld van vandaag

Did European colonialism truly end in the 20th century, as we often assume? Check out Anne van Mourik's (NIOD) interview with CIGH's Martin Thomas about his book The End of Empires and a World Remade (2024).

NIOD Rewind: The End of Empires and a World Remade

Martin Thomas and Anne van MourikNIOD Rewind Did European colonialism truly end in the 20th century, as we often assume? In this episode Anne van Mourik (NIOD) speaks with Martin Thomas (Exeter University) about his book The End of Empires and a World Remade: A Global History of Decolonization (Princeton University Press). He argues that decolonization was not just the transfer of power from colonizers to the colonized, but a global, often violent process that forged new alliances, reshaped international connections, and left behind enduring colonial legacies.
