This volume offers an interdisciplinary approach to some pivotal
topics of (de-) colonization. It examines the early modern debate
on just war, transatlantic conquest and slavery, followed by the
shift of the debate in the 18th and 19th centuries towards
assertions of racial hierarchies based on supposed matters of fact,
and finally the philosophical discussion regarding decolonization.
Two central themes emerge: first, the political circumstances and
the exploitation of the available terminology resulted in the
production of new meanings or "translations" during the 17th and
18th centuries, and second, the adoptions of established
justifications of colonial activities and enslavement brought about
models of natural science that increasingly developed a momentum of
their own.
