Oltre la nazione. Conflitti postcoloniali e pratiche interculturali. Il caso della diaspora tamil
2014
Perché il nazionalismo sembra ancora, forse più che in passato, diffuso in un mondo globalizzato? Come funziona l'identità “nazionale” in un contesto di migrazioni transnazionali? Possiamo ancora chiamare “migrazioni” i fenomeni diasporici che stanno trasformando le nostre società? Come possiamo discutere di intercultura in presenza del terrorismo internazionale? Il volume si occupa di tali questioni non in maniera generalista ma concentrandosi su un ambito specifico: i Tamil dello Sri Lanka, le pratiche (politiche, economiche, culturali) transnazionali che agiscono (terrorismo compreso) e le forme plurali di oppressione che soffrono (in Sri Lanka come nelle comunità diasporiche in Occident…
Suomalaisuuden ja toiseuden rajamailla : eksotisointi Gallen-Kallelan Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistoriassa
2020
Museoilla on ollut historiallisesti keskeinen rooli kansallisuuden ja kansallisen kuvaston tuottajina ja kulttuuriperinnön ylläpitäjinä. Osana kansallisen identiteetin rakentamisprojektia museot ovat osallistuneet myös eksotisoivan kuvaston ja toiseuden tuottamiseen ja toiminnallaan vahvistaneet kolonialistisia erontekoja. Tässä artikkelissa otamme erityiseen tarkasteluun Gallen-Kallela Museon Afrikka-kokoelman näyttelyhistorian ja pohdimme, miten museo on kokoelmaa esittäessään osallistunut kolonialistisen kuvaston tuottamiseen ja uudelleen tulkitsemiseen. Tutkimuksessa esiin nostamamme näyttelyt jakautuvat neljälle vuosikymmenelle (vuosille 1972, 1987, 1993, 2003). Aineistonamme on kirjal…
"The Dutch Legacy in the Indonesian Parliament"
2013
th century; Parliamentary procedure Abstract The Indonesian parliament, the DPR, today presents its similar characteristics as the Dutch parliament in the 19 th century. The historical trajectories show that when establishing the core of the parliament institution, the founding fathers copied what the colonial government had been practiced, and maintained during the authoritarian regime in Indonesia, accordingly the Dutch legacy lingered. Consequently, in the wave of democratic era, after the fall of the authoritarian president, the same institution should have adapted itself into a more democratic institution, but remained weak due to its outdated characteristics. This paper shows the hist…
La politique coloniale de la IIe République : un assimilationnisme modéré
1998
The colonial policy of the second Republic demonstrate a moderate assimilationist policy. The ideas of Victor Schoelcher are influential, but not entirely adopted. Indeed, Schoelcher fought for the application of common law to the colonies. Although the emancipated slaves of the four old colonies are under the rule of juridical assimilation, the specific status of the natives remains unchanged. The constitution of 1848 institutes a représentation of the colonies before the National Assembly, proclaims the unity and indivisibility of the Republic and the sovereignty of France over its colonies. However, it adopts the principle of specific legislation for the later.
Contradictions of Gender and ‘Imaginative’ Representations of a (Post-)colonial Nation. E. Brodber’s Myal, A. Roy’s The God of Small Things and B. Ev…
2006
The article illustrates the ways in which the productive theoretical conflation of feminist critique and (post)colonial studies makes it possible to demonstrate that the implications of the category of gender and 'race' allow Erna Brodber's Myal (1988), Bernardine Evaristo's Lara (1997) and Arundhati Roy's The God of Small Things (1997) to contribute to imaginatively reshaping the postcolonial nation.

Translation and bilingualism in Monica Ali's and Jhumpa Lahiri's Marginalised Identitties
2012
This study, drawing upon contemporary theories in the field of migration, postcolonialism, and translation, offers an analysis of literary works by Monica Ali and Jhumpa Lahiri. Ali and Lahiri epitomize second-generation immigrant literature, play with the linguistic concept of translating and interpreting as forms of hybrid connections, and are significant examples of how a text may become a space where multi-faceted identities co-habit in a process of deconstructing and reconstructing their own sense of emplacement in non-native places. Each immigrant text becomes a hybrid site, where second- and third generations of immigrant subjects move as mobile, fluctuating and impermanent identitie…

Spaces, (Non-)Places, and Fluid Identities in Tim Winton’s Fiction
2021
One of the major issues addressed by postcolonial literature is identity crisis. In Australia, a multicultural country and a former settler colony, where the sense of belonging is particularly troubling, this literary theme has been exploited by writers to address the ambiguity of home and belonging. This article attempts to examine Tim Winton’s fiction and show how the writer explores the concepts of place and space to set his protagonists’ shattered selves in the postcolonial geography. The analysis of his fiction from the perspective of humanistic geography, Edward Relph’s concept of placelessness, and Marc Auge’s idea of non-place reveals that a simple categorization of Winton’s setting…
Citādības atspoguļojums Amitava Goša romānos
2022
Postkoloniālajā literatūrā citādības jeb alteritātes jēdziens dominē diskusijās par Rietumu imperiālisma politisko un sociālo ietekmi. Literatūras teorijā citādības jēdzienu var aplūkot no divām perspektīvām - viena ir fiziskā citādība, bet otra ir iekšēja atsvešināšanās no noteiktas grupas vai sabiedrības. Šī darba mērķis ir analizēt, kā citādība tiek attēlota Amitava Goša romānos „Magoņu jūra”, „Ēnu līnijas” un „Kalkutas hromosoma”. Šajā darbā izmantotās pētniecības metodes ir literatūras apskats, teksta analīze un atziņu interpretācija. Atlasīto romānu analīze parādīja, ka varoņu citādība un ar to saistītie aizspriedumi ir atšķirīgi atkarībā no romānu tēmām un laika periodiem, kuros nori…
