Imperialism and Colonialism
Considerations from a Political Perspective
Deutsche Fassung
Abstract
Russian President Putin reinforces the countries of the global south in their historical role as victims of imperialism and colonialism. At the same time, he demands that these formerly colonized peoples support him in asserting his imperial claims in the war against Ukraine. The fact that this political charade seems to be working has to do with the different ways in which imperialism and colonialism are treated as forms of political rule.
