    INTRODUCTION

    POSTCOLONIALISM, from an
    anthropological perspective, involves the
    study of the impact and consequences of
    colonization on societies and cultures. It
    examines power dynamics, inequality, and
    how these factors have shaped the identities
    and experiences of both the colonizers and
    the colonized. It is a complex field that
    helps us understand the lasting effects of
    colonization and the ongoing struggles for
    decolonization and social justice.
