The difficulty of founding a new regime is an important theme in political theory, and the intellectual history of decolonization provides a rich--albeit\u003cbr\u003eoverlooked--opportunity to explore it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMany theorists have pointed out that the colonized subject was a divided subject. This book argues that the postcolonial state was a divided state. While postcolonial states were created through the struggle for independence, they drew on both colonial institutions and reinvented pre-colonial\u003cbr\u003etraditions. \u003cem\u003ePolitical Theories of Decolonization\u003c\/em\u003e illuminates how many of the central themes of political theory such as land, religion, freedom, law, and sovereignty are imaginatively explored by postcolonial thinkers. In doing so, it provides readers access to texts that add to our understanding of\u003cbr\u003econtemporary political life and global political dynamics.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret Kohn, Keally McBride\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/16\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780195399585\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMargaret Kohn\u003c\/strong\u003e is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Toronto. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeally McBride\u003c\/strong\u003e is Associate Professor of Politics at the University of San Francisco.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press, USA","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40210685526131,"sku":"9.7802E+12","price":41.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_b01a9e6a-5c7e-4e94-983d-902aaa3a4ebe.jpg?v=1656421582","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/political-theories-of-decolonization-postcolonialism-and-the-problem-of-foundations-9780195399585","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
