What is decolonization

1 answer

Decolonization is the process of undoing the effects of colonization and imperialism, which involves dismantling colonial institutions, systems, and ideologies, as well as challenging and transforming power structures and systems that perpetuate colonialism. It involves restoring self-determination, sovereignty, and autonomy to formerly colonized peoples, and addressing the legacies of colonialism, such as racism, inequality, and cultural erasure. Decolonization is often a complex and ongoing process that encompasses political, social, economic, and cultural aspects.
