Description

Raymond F. Betts explores the complex process of decolonization and its lasting consequences through historical analysis of major post-colonial transitions. Drawing on diverse examples including Ghana, India, Rwanda and Hong Kong, this Routledge publication examines how the two World Wars transformed the colonial empire, the challenges faced by newly independent nations, and the demographic upheaval that accompanied the end of imperial rule. The book investigates the cultural movements, literary responses, and ideological searches that defined both dying empires and emerging nations. Featuring an annotated bibliography and chronology of political decolonization events, this used book in good condition offers comprehensive insight into how twentieth-century independence movements reshaped global politics and society.
