Now and Then- Colonialism_Postcolonialism and imperialism

Colonialism :-

Colonialism is the practice of establishing territorial dominion over a colony by an outside political power characterized by exploitation, expansion, and maintenance of that territory. The indigenous people suffer in the hands of the colonizer where they are subjected to hard labor and restriction in trading

Post colonialism :-

a theoretical approach in various disciplines that is concerned with the lasting impact of colonization in former colonies.

Imperialism :-

a political system in which a rich and powerful country controls other countries (colonies) which are not as rich and powerful as itself

Now and then:-

There are still many parts in the world which are colonised. The United States of America has a program which is called "United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories". The United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories is a list of places that deems to be "non-self-governing" and subject to the decolonisation process.

Maybe this type of colonialism is not what we have discussed earlier but, by this, we can say that there is still colonialism in the world.

Ania_Loomba :-

Loomba's Colonialism/Postcolonialism is an invaluable introductory text to the many theories, debates and critical agendas that inform and animate postcolonial studies. Two things in particular make this book especially noteworthy: the first is its clarity and accessibility, especially in its explanations of the complex philosophical ideas that form the basis of postcolonial criticism. The second is its contemporary relevance, as this edition has been updated to engage with political and social events over the last decade. The first chapter presents a comprehensive introduction to the field as well as an overview of its theoretical background through definitions of critical terms such as ‘colonialism’, ‘imperialism’ and ‘discourse’. Loomba examines the ways in which structures of knowledge.

The Alchemist - book review

આ ક્વોરનટાઇન વેકેશન મા જો કઈ આત્મસંતોષ મળે એવુ વાંચન કયુઁ હોય તો એ છે The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. આજ સુધી માત્ર મેં Paulo Coelho ની વાતો જ સાંભળેલી હતી પરંતુ આજે સ્વયં વાંચીને તેને અનુભવ્યું પણ. The Alchemist નવલક્થા એ સૌથી શ્રેષ્ઠ નવલક્થા માની એક નવલ કથા છે. જેનું 67 ભાષા મા અનુવાદ થયેલું છે અને 10 કરોડ થી પણ વધારે પ્રતો નું વેચાણ થયેલું છે. નવલ કથા ના ફ્રન્ટ પેજ પર એક ખૂબ સરસ વાકય લખ્યું છે : "જયારે આપણે કંઈક મેળવવાની ઈચ્છા મન થી કરીએ છીએ ત્યારે દુનિયા ની સમગ્ર શક્તિ આપણી મદદે આવે છે ". આ નવલક્થા મા ઘણા સંઘર્ષ બતાવા મા આવ્યા છે જે અમુક લોકો વચ્ચે ના પણ હતા અને પોતાની જાત સાથે ના પણ હતા. પોતાના હૃદય એટલે કે મન ને કેવી રીતે કાબુમાં લેવું એની વાત છે. ગુજરાતી કેહવત છે કે :"મન હોય તો માળવે જવાય " એમજ જો મન થી મક્કમ હોય તો કોઈ પણ કામ સફળતા પૂર્વક પૂર્ણ કરી શકાય. અને ધ્યેય ની પ્રાપ્તિ કરી શકાય. અને આ વાત ને ખૂબ જ સારી રીતે બતાવામાં આવિ છે આ નવલક્થા મા. આધ્યાત્મિકતા ની ઝલક દેખાય આવે છે અને સાથે સાથે દ્રઢ શ્રદ્ધા અને શુકનો ની પણ વાતો કરવામાં આવિ છે....
