| description | The nine essays of this volume, spanning from the eighteenth to mid-twentieth century, highlight the workings of, and reactions to, colonial domination in Asian contexts. The scholars, which include Victoria Haskins of the University of Newscastle, use a range of social science history methods to explore new paths to colonial history. How were individuals, groups, and social categories able to order their lives in the face of the implementation of external dominance? In other words, what was the agency enabling them to interact with, adapt to, use, counteract and in the end defeat colonialism? The essays emphasize colonialism as a multifaceted historical phenomenon which has taken a number of mutually incompatible forms. The various texts thus reflect on both the "early" colonialism build on indirect and informal practices, and the later forms marked by a high degree of authoritarian control. |

In Responding to the West geven geschiedkundigen en sociologen hun visie op de methodologie en studie van het kolonialisme in Azië als historisch fenomeen. De negen essays geven hiervan een veelzijdig beeld. Ondanks de structurele onderdrukking was kolonialisme geen kwestie van eenrichtingsverkeer. De studie ervan vereist dan ook een grondige analyse van de continu veranderende verhoudingen tussen kolonisten en gekoloniseerden. Met Responding to the West wordt alvast een voorzet gegeven. 2021-02-10T12:58:18Z 2010-12-31 23:55:55 2019-12-10 14:46:32 2020-04-01T15:38:26Z 2009 book 340019 OCN: 476760417 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/35307 9789089640932 https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/28330 eng ICAS Publications Series open access image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg image/jpeg n/a n/a n/a n/a https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35307/1/340019.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35307/1/340019.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35307/1/340019.pdf https://library.oapen.org/bitstream/20.500.12657/35307/1/340019.pdf Amsterdam University Press 10.5117/9789089640932 10.5117/9789089640932 de2ecbe7-1037-4e96-8c3a-5a842d921e04 9789089640932 184 open access |
