We live at a time when questions of climate justice, global migration flows, and militarized landscapes daily remind us of colonial pasts, and how they shape our world today. The master’s programme in Colonial and Postcolonial Studies is tailored for you who seek to investigate and understand colonial practices of power and their manifestations in the past and the present. Our world experiences the consequences of colonial conquests and discourses. This master’s programme in Colonial and Postcolonial Studies meets the need for critical analysis of the meanings, implications, and consequences of colonialism. As a student, you are actively part of creating knowledge about the formation of the modern world under the impact of colonial power, orientalist discourses and knowledge networks. You are challenged to critically examine the manifestations of civilizational and Eurocentric discourses in political, economic, cultural, religious, and artistic representations. The first semester lays the foundation with studies in the history of imperialism and central theories in postcolonial criticism. A broad choice of courses introduces you to, among other things, Nordic colonialism, environmental history, indigenous studies, and the scientific approach of the Enlightenment. The programme gives you training in field study, archival research, planning and leading seminars. Need more information?
