“On Coloniality and Colonialism: postcolonial and decolonial studies in dialogue”

This panel is inspired by ongoing discussions regarding the continued relevancy of postcolonial studies before the greater push towards epistemic diversity. In attempting to broaden the scope of postcolonial studies, this panel solicits propositions that look at the many ways in which the postcolonial imaginary can be reinterpreted and applied to the larger question of coloniality from 1492 to the present day. Central questions include:

  • What is the legacy of postcolonial studies?
  • What is meant by “decolonizing” postcolonial studies?
  • What can postcolonial studies bring to decolonial studies?
  • What can decolonial studies bring to postcolonial studies?
