This is an essential companion to the process of decolonization – perhaps one of the most important historical processes of the twentieth century. Examining decolonization in Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and the Pacific, the Companion includes:
- thematic chapters
- a detailed chronology and thorough glossary
- biographies of key figures
- maps.
Providing comprehensive coverage of a broad and complex subject area, the guide explores:
- the global context for decolonization
- nationalism and the rise of resistance movements
- resistance by white settlers and moves towards independence
- Hong Kong and Macau, and decolonization in the late twentieth century
- debates surrounding neo-colonialism, and the rise of ‘development’ projects and aid
- the legacy of colonialism in law, education, administration and the military.
With suggestions for further reading, and a guide to sources, this is an invaluable resource for students and scholars of the colonial and post-colonial eras, and is an indispensable guide to the reshaping of the world in the twentieth century.
