Europe after Empire is a pioneering comparative history of European
decolonization from the formal ending of empires to the
postcolonial European present. Elizabeth Buettner charts the
long-term development of post-war decolonization processes as well
as the histories of inward and return migration from former empires
which followed. She shows that not only were former colonies remade
as a result of the path to decolonization: so too was Western
Europe, with imperial traces scattered throughout popular and elite
cultures, consumer goods, religious life, political formations, and
ideological terrains. People were also inwardly mobile, including
not simply Europeans returning 'home' but Asians, Africans, West
Indians, and others who made their way to Europe to forge new
lives. The result is a Europe fundamentally transformed by
multicultural diversity and cultural hybridity and by the
destabilization of assumptions about race, culture, and the
meanings of place, and where imperial legacies and memories live
on.
