Colonialism and Reconciliation in Settler Societies

This course explores the implications of “reconciliation” between settlers and those peoples colonized by them. To understand “reconciliation” we begin with recognition of the scope and nature of colonialism. Students will delve deeper into theoretical conceptions of colonialism and neo-colonialism, and to apply these theoretical constructs to case studies drawn from the Americas and around the world.
