Global History of Anticolonial Thought

The proposed research group seeks to create an interdiciplinary platform for scholars working on anticolonialism and global history to explore the meaning of global political theory further and theorize the ways in which land and sea have bridged the anti-colonial world in the past as well as explore the promises - and limits - of anticolonialism as a normative resource for the the future global age. The ultimate goal is to collectively advance the agenda of creating a global framework for studying anticolonial thought and to create a Center for the Study of Global Political Thought at UBC.
