{"product_id":"book-ezhs","title":"Postcolonialism","description":"Postcolonialism explores the political, social, and cultural effects of decolonization, continuing the anti-colonial deconstruction of western dominance. This \u003ci\u003eVery Short Introduction\u003c\/i\u003e discusses both the history and key debates of postcolonialism, and considers its importance as a means of changing the way we think about the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRobert J. C. Young examines the key strategies that postcolonial thought has developed to engage with the impact of sometimes centuries of western political and cultural domination. Situating the discussion in a wide cultural and geographical context, he draws on examples such as the status ofindigenous peoples, of those dispossessed from their land, Algerian rai music, and global social and ecological movements. In this new edition he also includes updated material on race, slavery, and postcolonial gender politics. Above all, Young argues that postcolonialism offers a politicalphilosophy of activism that contests the current situation of global inequality, which in a new way continues the anti-colonial struggles of the past and enables us to decolonize our own lives in the present.","brand":"Tantor","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49364311900464,"sku":"BDezhs","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":49364312031536,"sku":"ZEezhs","price":35.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":49364312097072,"sku":"ZMezhs","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/ezhs-Square-cover.jpg?v=1780064681","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-ezhs","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
