The Archaeology of Capitalism in Colonial Contexts: Postcolonial
Historical Archaeologies explores the complex interplay of colonial
and capital formations throughout the modern world. The authors
present a critical approach to this topic, trying to shift
discourses in the theoretical framework of historical archaeology
of capitalism and colonialism through the use of postcolonial
theory. This work does not suggest a new theoretical framework as
such, but rather suggests the importance of revising key
theoretical terms employed within historical archaeology, arguing
for new engagements with postcolonial theory of relevance to all
historical archaeologists as the field de-centers from its
traditional locations. Examining case studies from North America,
South America, the Caribbean, Africa, Australia, the Middle East,
and Europe, the chapters offer an unusually broad ranging geography
of historical archaeology, with each focused on the interplay
between the particularisms of colonial structures and the
development of capitalism and wider theoretical discussions. Every
author also draws attention to the ramifications of their case
studies in the contemporary world. With its cohesive theoretical
framework this volume is a key resource for those interested in
decolonizing historical archaeology in theory and praxis, and for
those interested in the development of modern global dynamics.
