Newcastle Postcolonial Research Group

Description

The Newcastle Postcolonial Research Group (NPRG) was established in 2001/2002 and freshly relaunched in the 2019/20 academic year. Inspired by continuing interest in disciplinary and interdisciplinary concerns in postcolonial studies, the group seeks to facilitate fruitful exchanges between a diverse range of research areas and methodologies in the Northeast region, and with national and international academic communities.

Collectively, the group's research interrogates empire’s cultural, historical and political legacies; transnationalism, migration, and ongoing processes of neo-colonialism; race, global inequalities, and politics of decolonisation.
