Over dit e-boek

Colonialism: A Global Legacy explores how the historical expansion of empires continues to influence modern societies, economies, and political systems. It argues that many contemporary global issues have roots in colonial policies and practices. Understanding these legacies is crucial for informed policymaking and equitable international relations. For example, demographic shifts caused by colonial-era forced migration still impact national identities and social structures today. The book also analyzes how the systematic extraction of resources during colonialism laid the groundwork for present-day economic disparities.

This book traces the evolution of colonialism, from mercantilism to high imperialism, examining ideologies like racial superiority that justified colonial rule. It delves into independence movements and resistance to colonial power. The narrative progresses systematically across chapters, beginning with core concepts and a colonial history overview. It then examines specific regions and thematic issues like demographic changes, economic exploitation, and resistance movements.

The book's strength lies in its comparative approach, drawing from history, political science, and economics to provide a nuanced, evidence-based account of colonialism’s enduring impact.
