Announcing H-Decol: H-Net Network on twentieth-century decolonization




ANNOUNCING H-DECOL

Member of: H-Net: Humanities and Social Sciences Online

ABOUT H-DECOL

H-DECOL is dedicated to the study of the history and processes of decolonization, broadly defined. The network provides a forum in which the end of European, American and Asian empires and the rise of independent nation-states, principally, but not exclusively, in the long twentieth century, can be understood holistically, across the boundaries drawn by particular bilateral metropole-colony relations. H-Decol explores the nexus of power, strategy and identity that carved overseas empires into the nation-states that make up the modern atlas. Above all, H-Decol seeks to encourage scholarly discussion and debate across academic disciplines on the course of imperial retrenchment, and the broader cultural, economic, political and ideological imprint left by decolonization on both the ‘colonizer’ and the ‘colonized’.

Like all H-Net lists, H-DECOL is moderated to edit out material that, in the editors' opinion, is not germane to the list, involves technical matters (such as subscription management requests), is inflammatory, or violates evolving, yet common, standards of Internet etiquette. H-Net's procedure for resolving disputes over list editorial practices is Article II, Section 2.20 of our Council Policies, located at:
