Decolonization
Jürgen Osterhammel |Jan C. Jansen
It would be hard to think of a process in the 20th century that changed the world more than the end of colonial rule in Asia and Africa. In chapters ordered both chronologically and thematically, this book describes the process over the entire century in all its ramifications. The author discusses the effects of decolonization on the world economy, international relations, and the history of ideas and examines the many long-term consequences for former colonies and their major cities.
