Postcolonial Geography

Postcolonial geography examines the impact of colonialism on landscapes, societies, and identities. It explores how former colonies are shaped by their colonial histories and how these histories influence current political, economic, and cultural dynamics. This field analyzes spatial relations, such as how maps and borders are drawn, and considers the voices and experiences of colonized peoples. By focusing on issues like migration, identity, and the environment, postcolonial geography reveals the ongoing effects of colonial rule and seeks to understand and address inequalities that persist today.
