DECOLONIZATION AS MOMENT AND PROCESS

11 DECOLONIZATION AS MOMENT AND PROCESS DECOLONIZATION is a technical and rather undramatic term for one of the most dramatic processes in modern history: the disappearance of empire as a political form, and the end of racial hierarchy as a widely accepted political ideology and structuring principle of world order. One can pin down this historical PROCESS by using a dual definition that, instead of keeping the PROCESS chronologically vague, anchors it unequiv-ocally in the history of the twentieth century.

and also to other popular categories applied to contemporary history, like “Cold War” or “globalization”— it is a somewhat anemic word derived from administrative practice that has become the most common term for this process. “Decoloni - zation” is not a category that historians or social scientists thought up in retrospect.
