Harper Lecture: After Colonialism: One Hundred Years of Self-Determination

After Colonialism: One Hundred Years of Self-Determination
Faculty Lecturers: Adom Getachew
Decolonization revolutionized the international order during the 20th century. Yet standard histories that present the end of colonialism as an inevitable transition from a world of empires to one of nations-a world in which self-determination was synonymous with nation building-obscure just how radical this change was. Hear from Adom Getachew as she recasts the history of decolonization.
Part of the UChicago Alumni and Friends Harper Lecture Spring 2023 Series. Originally broadcast on May 10, 2023.
