Drawing together the insights of postcolonial scholarship and cultural studies, this collection questions the place of 'the popular' in the postcolonial paradigm. Multidisciplinary in focus, it explores the extent to which popular forms are infused with colonial logics, and whether they can be employed by those advocating for change.
