Colonial Formations highlights the critical importance of colonial
dynamics at the so-called peripheries of the British Empire. With a
focus on the Australasian settler colonies, the Pacific, India, and
China, it examines colonised peoples’ subjectivities, mobilities
and networks, through accounts of labour, law, education and
activism. Decentring the British metropole, while shedding light on
its enduring power, contributors chart the vast array of mobilities
and connections that shaped these dynamics. They illuminate
contexts and experiences of labour, education, touring, courtrooms
and anticolonial struggles. Many attend to questions of colonial
belonging and its limits – within cultures of sociability – or
citizenship and its attendant benefits and rights. The chapters
show how colonised peoples, both Indigenous and ‘coloured’
migrants, critiqued and mobilised to challenge imposed strictures
on their life possibilities, whether in individual colonies, in
cross-colonial networks or across the imperial arena. In doing so,
this collection offers new insights into the interplay of place,
mobility and power, and on the critical importance of colonial
formations. The chapters in this book were originally published as
a special issue of the journal History Australia.
