“…Those who live in established colonies are referred to be colonized. Colonialism is divided into four categories: settler colonialism (Morris Amanda, 2019) (Odukoya, 2017), exploitation colonialism (Kalu & Falola, 2019) (Bigon & Njoh, 2018), surrogate colonialism (Free & Ritish, 2018), and internal colonialism (Types of Colonialism -Insightsias, n.d.).…”

“…However, while the specificities of settler colonialism and of the Caribbean colonial experience should not be downplayed, the 'lines between [forms of colonialism] are not hard and fast' . 58 Settler-colonial theory in particular has been criticised for failing to recognise how different forms of colonialism and exploitative formations such as slavery are often entangled and co-constituted. 59 On the other hand, by making plantation society the entry point into Caribbean history, many post-colonial scholars have assumed and reproduced Indigenous absence instead of establishing its roots in a previous Indigenous dispossession and elimination similar to settler erasure.…”

‘Sovereignty is still the name of the game’: Indigenous theorising and strategic entanglement in Māori political discourses

In recent decades, sovereignty has come under increased academic scrutiny for being a Eurocentric notion antithetical to emancipatory politics, leading critical theory scholars to call for an overcoming or even abandonment of the concept. Paradoxical as it may seem, it nonetheless remains an appealing ideal for many colonised peoples. Indigenous activists and scholars have actively re-appropriated the language of sovereignty to encapsulate and advance Indigenous political aspirations. This paper discusses how Māori, Aotearoa/New Zealand’s Indigenous people, navigate their relations to the concept in their contemporary political discourses pursuing self-governance. Building on interviews with Māori leaders, scholars, and activists, it offers empirical insights into Indigenous political thought’s engagement with the idea of sovereignty. It highlights an ambivalence oscillating between rejection and rearticulation present both in Indigenous theorising and Māori politics. From an analysis of Māori contemporary conceptual strategies, this paper suggests that Yarimar Bonilla’s notion of ‘strategic entanglement’ offers a productive account to comprehend the approached Māori actors’ deployment of the sovereignty concept, and possibly that of Indigenous peoples beyond Aotearoa. This paper thus highlights the continued relevance of the sovereignty framework, both analytically and politically, to meaningfully engage with contemporary Indigenous politics.

“…' (2015: 52). Recent literature engages apartheid as itself settler colonial (Free, 2018) and theorises South Africa in the 'colonial present' (Kepe et al, 2011;Veracini and Verbuyst, 2020). Building on these insights, this article has three objectives:…”

Settler Colonialism and the South African TRC: Ambivalent Denial and Democratisation Without Decolonisation

In the quarter-century since it began its work, the South African TRC has been endlessly debated. At the same time, a field of study emerged centred on settler colonialism, and settler colonial analyses have become established in transitional justice. South Africa’s TRC, however, has escaped examination through the lens of settler colonialism. Typically, settler colonialism in South Africa is treated as an historical phase; however, recent scholarship emphasises South Africa’s colonial present. Following these insights, this article: (1) establishes the relevance of a settler colonial lens for interpreting the South African TRC by demonstrating the settler colonialism of apartheid; (2) provides an empirical examination of the TRC’s Report. The Report acknowledges settler colonialism while advancing a series of denials, producing ‘ambivalent denial’; (3) explores the implications of ambivalent denial. Specifically, ambivalent denial contributes to democratisation without decolonisation by enabling settler denial and failing to address settler colonial structures.
