European Cosmopolitanism (eBook, ePUB)

Colonial Histories and Postcolonial Societies
Redaktion: Bhambra, Gurminder; Narayan, John

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the cosmopolitan project of post-war Europe and offers a postcolonial appraisal of its recent history. The focus is not on pluralising the narratives of Europe, but with forging an understanding of European cosmopolitanism - of history, identity, politics - more adequate to its colonial past and present multicultural constituencies.
