Abstract

"This highly original work posits that the changes in the nature of citizenship caused by neoliberal globalization must be understood as the result of an ongoing imperial project.Although they may seem admirable, policies such as humanitarian and citizenship rights are really an imperial venture led by global institutions and corporations in order to export capitalist market forces worldwide. This entails a form of neoliberal citizenship in which social security is replaced by market insecurity and rising inequality. In this light, the citizen becomes an "imperial subject" whose needs and desires have been colonized by the global market. However, emerging social forces in Latin America and elsewhere have begun to challenge this imperialist logic, fostering a resistance that may bring forth a new global vision of citizenship.This unique analysis draws together neoliberal citizenship, new imperialism, and the creation of 'financial subjects' into an innovative theoretical exploration. By expanding the debate on global citizenship, Imperial Subjects will engage readers in political and social sciences interested in contemporary political thought, citizenship, and globalization."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Abstract

This book fills a long-recognized need for a comparative study of the anti-colonial movements in two countries not commonly combined within the same historical context. Different though Korea and Vietnam are in several ways, they both shared pasts that were similarly formative in molding the lives, careers, and thought of the two protagonists examined here. The book reveals how they not only dealt with the realities of their time, but also how, through history, philosophy, experience, emotion, and imagination, they came to deal with their countries' condition, and to envision the future and an alternative world order that have pertinence today.

Abstract

"Au début du siècle dernier, le sultan du Maroc vient de signer un traité qui place désormais son pays sous le protectorat de la France (30 mars 1912). À l'ombre du maréchal Lyautey, un sultan de substitution, totalement soumis aux nouveaux maîtres français, a été proclamé. Cependant, nombreux sont ceux qui, au Maroc, refusent le fait accompli et se révoltent face à la mainmise étrangère sur le pays. Ainsi, dans le Sud marocain, Moulay Ahmed el Hiba, fils d'un marabout ouest-saharien (Ma el Aïnin), se fait proclamer sultan du Jihad en 1912; une première fois à Tiznit, la seconde à Marrakech. Ces événements ont donné naissance à un mouvement qui pendant plus de vingt ans (1912-1934) symbolisera pour ces populations berbères et ouest-sahariennes la résistance à l'avancée inéluctable des troupes coloniales françaises et espagnoles.0Fondée sur une analyse croisée d'archives inédites, aussi bien françaises que marocaines, l'auteur fait la lumière sur un événement fondateur de la conquête coloniale du Maroc. Mythifiée, récupérée ou occultée, la figure fondatrice du mouvement hibiste est encore aujourd'hui le sujet d'un conflit mémoriel ayant pour objet l'Ouest saharien."--Page 4 of cover.

Abstract

"The late nineteenth century is generally thought of as a period of fervent imperial enthusiasm in Britain. However, beneath the surface there were currents of discontent. Mira Matikkala here examines modes of thought in Late Victorian Britain that were described as anti-imperialist in the period 1878-1901. In doing so, she clarifies the picture of moral and cultural attitudes in an era which has been too often seen as characterised by monolithic imperial culture. For the first time, this book explores the colourful and fragmentary group of British anti-imperialists collectively and from a comparative perspective; their collaborations as well as the differences in their approaches. The spectrum extends from the eccentric poet and ex-diplomat W.S. Blunt to the philosopher Herbert Spencer and from ethical positivists like Frederic Harrison to practical propagandists like William Digby. This book will be a significant contribution to the fields of British intellectual history and political thought."--Bloomsbury publishing.

Abstract

"The book tells the stories of seven women who played important roles in the decolonization enterprise in the mid-twentieth century-roles that have often been overlooked or underestimated in retrospective analyses. The author delves into lives of women who were injured by German torpedoes, incarcerated in concentration camps, or declared enemies of the Vichy state in order to thoroughly examine the role of black women in the discursive framing of citizenship in the Francophone world. Marshaling new evidence from archives in France, Haiti, Martinique, and the United States, Joseph-Gabriel reveals that black women played central roles in anticolonial movements and articulated a de-colonial citizenship that was more inclusive because it was informed by the intersecting oppressions they faced in the French empire. The author argues that black women used the language of citizenship to claim their belonging to multiple cultural and political spaces at once (France, Africa, the Caribbean, the African diaspora, the global South) and in so doing they expanded the possibilities of citizenship beyond the borders of the nation state and the French empire to imagine Pan African, Pan Caribbean, and global South identities that were informed by a feminist practice of anticolonial resistance"--
