Kant and Colonialism: Historical and Critical Perspectives [Repost]

Kant and Colonialism: Historical and Critical Perspectives by Katrin Flikschuh


English | Jan. 20, 2015 | ISBN: 0199669627 | 256 Pages | PDF | 1.94 MB

This is the first book dedicated to a systematic exploration of Kant"s position on colonialism. Bringing together a team of leading scholars in both the history of political thought and normative theory, the chapters in the volume seek to place Kant"s thoughts on colonialism in historical context, examine the tensions that the assessment of colonialism produces in Kant"s work, and evaluate the relevance of these reflections for current debates on global justice and the relation of Western political thinking to other parts of the world.

Beyond the Anarchical Society: Grotius, Colonialism and Order in World Politics

Edward Keene, "Beyond the Anarchical Society: Grotius, Colonialism and Order in World Politics"


English | 2002 | ISBN: 0521810310, 0521008018 | 180 pages | PDF | 0.9 MB

It is commonly argued that the international system is currently in a state of upheaval, as state sovereignty is challenged by a variety of forces. Keene"s book questions this assumption, arguing that sovereignty has never existed globally in any case, and suggesting that it has applied only to Western states. International relations elsewhere have been characterized by the norms of colonialism, rather than international law. The book examines the conduct of the British and Dutch empires, and how the traditions of colonialism have been challenged in the modern world.

The Naqab Bedouin and Colonialism: New Perspectives

The Naqab Bedouin and Colonialism: New Perspectives by Mansour Nasasra and Sophie Richter-Devroe


English | 2014 | ISBN: 0415638453 | 232 pages | PDF | 1,8 MB

The Naqab Bedouin and Colonialism brings together new scholarship to challenge perceived paradigms, often dominated by orientalist, modernist or developmentalist assumptions on the Naqab Bedouin.




The past decade has witnessed a change in both the wider knowledge production on, and political profile of, the Naqab Bedouin. This book addresses this change by firstly, endeavouring to overcome the historic isolation of Naqab Bedouin studies from the rest of Palestine studies by situating, studying and analyzing their predicaments firmly within the contemporary context of Israeli settler-colonial policies. Secondly, it strives to de-colonise research and advocacy on the Naqab Bedouin, by, for example, reclaiming ‘indigenous’ knowledge and terminology.




Offering not only a nuanced description and analysis of Naqab Bedouin agency and activism, but also trying to draw broader conclusion as to the functioning of settler-colonial power structures as well as to the politics of research in such a context, this book is essential reading for students and researchers with an interest in Postcolonial Studies, Development Studies, Israel/Palestine Studies and the contemporary Middle East more broadly.
