PSC 375 - Anti-Colonialism (3 cr.)

What is colonialism? How have histories of colonialism shaped our contemporary world? What political theories, ideas, strategies, and practices are necessary to resist colonialism? To examine these questions, students will engage scholarship about the theory, history, and present of colonialism, grounded in anti-colonial struggles by peoples of Africa and the African diaspora, Latin America, South Asia, and by indigenous peoples. The course explores how these struggles transform ideas about freedom, justice, and liberation.
