📣 FORTHCOMING PUBLICATION: Decolonization in the 21st Century

Edited by Joyce C.H. Liu and Brett Neilson, Decolonization in the 21st Century critically interrogates the persistence and mutation of colonial logics amidst rising global inequality and geopolitical friction. Moving beyond the mid-20th-century framework of national independence, the volume reconceptualises decolonisation as an ongoing struggle against contemporary architectures of domination.

Amid rising global inequality, intensifying geopolitical frictions, and the renewed force of colonial logics, this volume offers a critical interrogation of coloniality, decolonial practices, global capitalism, and the technologies of governance that entrench social and environmental injustice.
Bringing together leading scholars from across disciplines and regions, the book traverses a wide range of contemporary terrains—from digital governance and platform capitalism to gig economies, migrant labor, and the racialized violence of displacement. Contributors unpack the historical roots and systemic architectures of domination while foregrounding situated efforts of resistance and decolonial praxis.

Through incisive analysis and engaged scholarship, the volume challenges the institutional and ideological exclusions that continue to shape our world, offering compelling insights into how decolonisation might be reimagined as both critique and struggle in the twenty-first century.
