Description: Colonialism and Beyond : Race and Migration from a Postcolonial Perspective, Paperback by Bischoff, Eva (EDT); Engel, Elisabeth (EDT), ISBN 3643902611, ISBN-13 9783643902610, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Guided by recent calls for postcolonial analysis to more closely attend to "the connection between capitalism and migration, the role of the body in (post-)racist societies, and the necessity for historical and spatial specificity," editors Bischoff (international history, U. of Trier, Germany) and Engel (a doctoral candidate in North American studies at the Freie U. Berlin, Germany) present six essays that collectively survey a range of new postcolonial perspectives on issues of race and migration. Specific topics include: indigenous sporting practices of athletes from and migrating in the Pacific region and the Australian national myth of the invention of freestyle swimming in white Australia; the postcolonial implications of Hawaiian claims to indigeneity, national identity, and sovereignty in the relationship between Native Hawaiians and the US federal government; the ways in which "racial American selves" became linked to prescribed civic duties through the activities of the Immigration Restriction League in the US; the manifestations of modern class racism in the planning and creation of immigrant workers' settlements in France; popular understandings of race, sovereignty, human rights, and power as demonstrated by European non-governmental organizations in the immediate post-war era; and forms of autonomous migrant organizations and solidarity networks in German metropoles in the 20th and 21st centuries.
