The Impact of the Second World War on the Decolonization of Africa Erin Myrice 2 “An African poet, Taban Lo Liyong, once said that Africans have three white men to thank for their political freedom and independence: Nietzsche, Hitler, and Marx.” 1 Marx raised awareness of oppressed peoples around the world, while also creating the idea of economic exploitation of living human beings. Nietzsche created the idea of a superman and a master race. Hitler attempted to implement Nietzsche’s ideas into Germany with an ultimate goal of reaching the whole world. Hitler’s attempted implementation of his version of a ‘master race’ led to one of the most bloody, horrific, and destructive wars the world has ever encountered. While this statement by Liyong was bold, it held truth. The Second World War was a catalyst for African political freedom and independence.

Colonialism and Economic Development in Africa Leander Heldring and James A. Robinson NBER Working Paper No. 18566 November 2012 JEL No. N37,N47,O55 ABSTRACT In this paper we evaluate the impact of colonialism on development in Sub-Saharan Africa. In the world context, colonialism had very heterogeneous effects, operating through many mechanisms, sometimes encouraging development sometimes retarding it. In the African case, however, this heterogeneity is muted, making an assessment of the average effect more interesting.

  • From Colonization to Integration in Britain and France
    The Legacies of History? From Colonization to Integration in Britain and France Erik Bleich Department of Political Science Munroe Hall Middlebury College Middlebury, VT 05753 [email protected] The Legacies of History? From Colonization to Integration in Britain and France “The tradition of all the dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brain of the living.” --Karl Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte How do we understand the effects of colonialism and decolonization on integration in Europe and the Americas?1 One important way is to gauge the institutional legacies of history. During the colonial era, countries such as Britain and France established a host of political and administrative institutions to rule beyond their borders. These had significant effects on how people worked, where they lived, what they learned, how they interacted with one another, and even how they understood themselves. It is natural to assume that some of these institutions have had enduring effects on metropolitan societies, particularly given the increasing diversity—in no small measure due to former colonial subjects migrating to the heart of the empire—in Western European societies after World War Two. Yet the relationship between managing ethnically diverse societies in the colonies and managing them at home has rarely been carefully scrutinized. It is sometimes asserted that Britain and France had different colonial policies and that they now have different integration policies that seem in important respects similar to their colonial policies. Ergo, the logic goes, there must be a connection between colonial and integration policies in both Britain and France. Favell (1998: 3-4) sketches out the implicit argument as follows: The responses of France and Britain [to the problematic of immigration], as befits their respective colonial reputations, appear to be almost reversed mirror images of one [an]other: France emphasizing 1 I am grateful for the excellent research assistance of Jill Parsons in the preparation of this paper.

Title: Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Elizabeth Sheehan The Walt Disney Company is one of the most recognizable and pervasive sources of children’s entertainment worldwide and has carefully crafted an image of childhood innocence. This wholesome image is contradicted by Disney’s consistent use of racist and sexist tropes, as well as its record of covertly using political themes in its media. Disney has a history of using its animated films to further a neocolonial ideology – an ideology that describes how current global superpowers continue to control the natural and capital resources of underdeveloped countries and to profit off of the unequal trading of these resources. The period of Disney’s history known as its animated Renaissance marked a clear return to the brand’s championing of American interventionism abroad.

  • Cultural Consequences of Colonization
    Cultural Consequences of Colonization CDI Course proposal submitted by: Salikoko S. Mufwene, Department of Linguistics, Chicago & Dain Borges, Department of History, Chicago Rationale: Colonization has interested many scholars in various research areas, including: • economic and political history (investigating economic causes of colonization and the legacy of colonial rules in today’s societies); • cultural and social anthropology (dealing generally with the destructive impact of colonization on indigenous cultures and with the cultural identity of descendants of the colonists and former slaves in former settlement colonies of especially the New World and Indian Ocean); • literature and culture studies (with particular interest today in postcolonial productions and also with phenomena such as the “créolité” movement in French overseas departments); and • linguistics (focusing on the emergence of new language varieties, particularly creoles, pidgins, and indigenized varieties of colonial European languages in Africa and Asia, as well as on language loss in former colonies, chiefly the Americas and Australia). Generally, the relevant scholars have focused on the colonization of the world by Europe since the 15th century, with colonization too often dealt with as a uniform enterprise from one colony to another. Except in history, rare are studies that have discussed the causes of colonization and why there are so many differences in the resultant socio-economic structures and cultures of former European colonies. For instance, why is it

These lands form part of the Pacific Rim, the countries that border the Pacific Ocean. Western nations desired the Pacific Rim lands for their strategic location along the sea route to China. Westerners also recognized the value of the Pacific colonies as sources of tropical agriculture, minerals, and oil.

    Decolonization: Indigeneity, Education & Society Vol. 1, No. 1, 2012, pp. 1-40 Decolonization is not a metaphor Eve Tuck State University of New York at New Paltz K. Wayne Yang University of California, San Diego Abstract Our goal in this article is to remind readers what is unsettling about decolonization. Decolonization brings about the repatriation of Indigenous land and life; it is not a metaphor for other things we want to do to improve our societies and schools. The easy adoption of decolonizing discourse by educational advocacy and scholarship, evidenced by the increasing number of calls to “decolonize our schools,” or use “decolonizing methods,” or, “decolonize student thinking”, turns decolonization into a metaphor. As important as their goals may be, social justice, critical methodologies, or approaches that decenter settler perspectives have objectives that may be incommensurable with decolonization. Because settler colonialism is built upon an entangled triad structure of settler-native-slave, the decolonial desires of white, non- white, immigrant, postcolonial, and oppressed people, can similarly be entangled in resettlement, reoccupation, and reinhabitation that actually further settler colonialism. The metaphorization of decolonization makes possible a set of evasions, or “settler moves to innocence”, that problematically attempt to reconcile settler guilt and complicity, and rescue settler futurity. In this article, we analyze multiple settler moves towards innocence in order to forward “an ethic of incommensurability” that recognizes what is distinct and what is sovereign for project(s) of decolonization in relation to human and civil rights based social justice projects. We also point to unsettling themes within transnational/Third World decolonizations, abolition, and critical space- place pedagogies, which challenge the coalescence of social justice endeavors, making room for more meaningful potential alliances.
