This book critically assesses the system of capitalist development that is being driven by the Global North in the modern (neo)colonial era, with a related focus on the anticolonial and anti-capitalist resistance being generated by indigenous peoples, peasants, and migrant workers across the world.
Informed by the contributions of Dr. Abdul Aziz Choudry, the book demonstrates how indigenous, peasant and migrant worker learning in political action and knowledge production are essential for growing and sustaining social movements and organised struggles. The book demonstrates how these resistances challenge racialized processes of territorial occupation, accumulation by dispossession, exploitation, and cultural and educational imperialism. Focusing on the regions of the Americas/Caribbean, Africa, Asia/Middle East, and across both ‘settler’ and exploitation colonies, the chapters amplify indigenous, peasant and migrant worker activism and draw out critical perspectives pertaining to colonial capital.
The indigenous, anticolonial, and anti-capitalist perspectives highlighted in this book will be essential reading for activists engaged with international politics and social change. It will also inform the work of students and critical scholars of social movement and resistance studies, critical development studies, indigenous studies, peasant and critical agrarian studies, migrant/labour studies, sociology, political science, and regional/area studies.
