Colonialism: A Global History interprets colonialism as an unequal relationship characterised by displacement and domination. It reveals the ways in which this relationship has been constitutive of global modernity.

The volume focuses on colonialism's dynamism, adaptability, and resilience, appraising a number of successive global colonial 'waves' that affected different locales at different periods, each characterised by a particular method of exploiting colonised populations and territories. Outlining a succession of distinct colonising conjunctures, and the ways in which they 'washed over' what is today understood as the 'Global South', shaping and reshaping institutions and prompting diverse responses from colonised communities, the book outlines the contemporary relevance of this unequal relation. With expanded coverage of post-WWII colonialism and factors driving decolonisation, new discussions of racial thought, nationalism, gender dynamics, and human rights, this new edition incorporates deeper perspectives from colonised peoples, providing a 'from the ground up' view of colonial experiences.
