“The spaces where future politics is prepared are facing a wave of corporate appropriation, fuelled by global capital and intensified nationalism, that threatens to rival the scandals of agribusiness and big pharma. This excitingly diverse collection on education, museums and cities around the world lifts the wraps on this new wave of colonial power, but also finds important new sources of hope: it will be a vital resource for academics and activists alike.” —Nick Couldry, Coauthor, <i>The Costs of Connection: How Data Is Colonizing Human Life and Appropriating It for Capitalism</i>
“In this wonderful collection of original essays, McCarthy and colleagues show us that colonisation is alive and thriving in our cities, schools and museums. Linking neoliberalism and global capital to new forms of expulsion, gross social inequalities and the normalising of dispossession, <i>Spaces of New Colonialism</i> shows us what the stakes are and why it matters.” —Susan L. Robertson, University of Cambridge
“<i>Spaces of New Colonialism</i> with its unrelenting demands for academic and policy activism is an audacious model of critical scholarship from the Global South and North. Its literary artistry across the thesaurus spectrum, passionate urgency for the disenfranchised, and conceptual flow in the right proportions give it an ingenious interdisciplinarity. This book’s smart and original ‘new colonialism’ thesis will equal the enduring influence of Said’s <i>Orientalism</i>; it has the intellectual rigor to be taught and debated with the same classic status as Weber’s ‘bureaucratization,’ Deleuze’s ‘societies of control,’ and E. O. Wilson’s ‘consilience’.” —Clifford Christians, Former Director of the Institute of Communications Research
