Decolonisation for the author does not include decolonising global capitalism, putting an end to
- wealth accumulation in the hands of a few
- obscene inequality
- unequal exchange and monopoly of technology,
- uneven development,
- overthrowing of dictatorships/bourgeois classes in poor” and “developing” countries”,
- debt,
- imposition of economic programmes such as privatisation, etc.
The author thinks ending discrimination and “reparations and restitution” will bring about decolonisation without touching the structure of the existent ownership and power relations.
Colonialism made the modern world. Let’s remake it.
