This book presents an overview of the direct and indirect ways in
which Europe continues to be influenced by its entrenched
postcolonial condition. Exploring the notion of postcolonial Europe
as it characterises a Europe caught at a number of crossroads, it
considers the distinctly European features of a range of global
crises by which Europe is beset, relating to migration,
nationalism, internationalism, climate change and inequality.
Linking these to the legacy of European hegemony during the era of
high imperialism and the inability to come to terms with the
region's increasingly provincialised status, the reversal of
migrant flows following the implosion of European empires, and the
dismantling of welfare societies initially made possible by the
accumulation of wealth during colonialism, the author examines the
gradual disintegration of the idea of the European collectivity and
the erosion of the idea that Europe is a dispenser of privileged
status. A wide-ranging study of Europe's crisis in its postcolonial
era, this volume will appeal to scholars of critical sociology,
political geography, cultural studies, anthropology, political
science and history with interests in colonialism and
postcolonialism.
