Neither Settler nor Native

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intertwined nature of nation-states and colonial states, Mahmood Mamdani argues that the formation of ethnic and religious majorities relies on the violent marginalization of minorities. By examining diverse cases from the United States to Eastern Europe, Israel, and Sudan, he advocates for a transformative concept: a state that exists independently of national identity, challenging conventional notions of governance and societal structure.
