postcolonial

adj.
Of, relating to, or being the time following the establishment of independence in a colony: postcolonial economics.

Stemming from the work of F. Fanon (1961) and E. Said (1978, 1993), the examination of the impact, and legacy, of the European conquest, colonization, and dominance of non-European cultures, lands, and peoples, together with the analysis of the ideas of European superiority inherent in European colonization. Other key features are: the exploration of the part played by representation in inaugurating and reproducing such ideas within both colonies and decolonized states; challenging the binary, homogeneous categories of the colonizing and colonized, and the recovery of the voices and agency of colonized peoples.
