Postcolonialism is the fastest growing area of study in English and the site of vigorous contention and vociferous debate. These essays explore the pressing issues and challenges that new theories of globalisation present for postcolonial studies, including the difficulties of rethinking how ‘marginality’ might be defined in a new globalised world and the problems of imagining social transformation within globalisation. The essays have been assembled with the intention to ‘think through’ the issues rather than provide definitive statements. This collection offers fresh, accessible scholarship as well as an informative and useful introduction for those new to the field. These wide-ranging articles bring together contributions from today’s noted scholars as well as those who represent the next generation, taking up some of the most pressing issues of postcolonial debate. The contributors, from five countries, offer varied and diverse perspectives.
