In this module, we will ask questions about key terms which define a constantly-moving field of study, and which help us to understand the world in which we live, for example colonial, postcolonial, empire, globality, world-system. We will think about these through literary and creative texts that offer us new perspectives on a modern world that is as connected as it is uneven, governed by the structures of contemporary capital and longer histories of empire. We will do this, very consciously, from the perspective of our location in east London, itself an exemplar of the global city.
