DESCRIPTION:Postcolonial theory (hereafter Postcolonialism) is largely sile
 nt on non-Western forms of colonialism. But why? And how can we break this 
 silence? This project provides an inter-disciplinary framework for analysin
 g colonial oppression of non-Western peoples by non-Western states. Colonia
 l practices already marked many nation-building processes across the world.
  But non-Western colonialism has become more prominent today in the context
  of Western decline and Asia’s rise. From Turkey\, Iran and Russia to Ind
 ia\, China and Myanmar\, non-Western states are engaged in colonial practis
 es against non-Western peoples. And yet\, Postcolonialism\, the burgeoning 
 academic field arguably most suited for studying non-Western colonialism\, 
 tends to elide them. This project turns Postcolonialism back on itself to p
 inpoint the intellectual roots of this elision. It finds them in Postcoloni
 alism’s reproduction of the disciplinary division between social theory a
 nd international theory\, and it offers a remedy. It combines theoretical i
 nsights from ‘uneven and combined development’\, International Relation
 s (IR)\, Postcolonialism and nationalism studies with the empirical rigour 
 of Area Studies and indigenous and autoethnographic sensibilities to develo
 p a new concept: ‘inter-subaltern colonialism’. This interdisciplinary 
 exercise will involve a case-study of ‘the Kurdish question’ in Iran wh
 ich it reframes away from a domestic issue of ethnic discrimination into an
  international question of colonial domination of a subaltern people by a n
 on-Western state that itself occupies a subaltern position in global order.
  Conceptualised as a product of the intersection of geopolitical hierarchy\
 , uneven development\, and late nation-state building\, inter-subaltern col
 onialism renders non-Western colonialism theoretically legible\, empiricall
 y analysable\, and normatively judicable. It also deprovincializes the deco
 lonializing agenda through expanding its exclusive focus on ‘the West’.
  And it releases Area Studies from its methodological nationalism and over-
 empiricism.\\n\\nContact: Feriel Kandil - feriel.kandil[at]univ-amu.frMiria
