| Synopsis: |
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. |
