The Rise and Fall of Modern Empires, Volume II

Colonial Knowledges

Herausgeber: Dubow, Saul

Beschreibung

This volume reproduces key historical texts concerning `colonial knowledgesâ . The use of the adjective 'colonial' indicates that knowledge is shaped by power relationships, while the use of the plural form, â knowledgesâ indicates the emphasis in this collection is on an interplay between different, often competing, cognitive systems. George Balandi
