“This book compels the reader to rethink the origin and development of the nation-state and its replication as inseparable from European colonialism, beginning with the establishment of the Spanish state through racialized ethnic cleansing and the 1492 deportations of Jews and Moors.
In this genealogy of political modernity, Mahmood Mamdani argues that the nation-state and the colonial state created each other. In case after case around the globe—from the New World to South Africa, Israel to Germany to Sudan—
the colonial state and the nation-state have been mutually constructed through the politicization of a religious or ethnic majority at the expense of an equally manufactured minority.
Registration limited to 100. Deadline for Registration: Saturday, 30th May, 2020.

Dear Colleagues, Friends,
I share this sad news along with the text of an interview with Thandika last year. Here, he sums up the lessons of a lifetime’s work.
Thandika Mkandawire has passed on!
Description
Djibouti, the small Horn of Africa state, has great geopolitical significance as a result of its location, positioned along the Bab el-Mandeb strait and the Gulf of Aden, where the maritime trade routes of three continents converge: Europe, Asia and Africa. Djibouti has become instrumental in controlling the trans-shipment of goods, particularly oil. It is also where world powers vie for control—as demonstrated by the military presence of multiple global powers, four of which (China, France, the USA and Japan) have established military bases in the country.
This Friday 4 October, there will be an excerpt from Mamdani's chapter in the book featured in the Mail &Guardian- in the Education section. It will also be free to online
