A POSTCOLONIAL APPROACH TO IMMIGRATION,
CITIZENSHIP, EMPIRE
This day-long conference will explore why postcolonial studies has played such a minor role in France and how this marginality relates to the near-invisibility of most approaches to the histories of colonialism and immigration among French scholars. The papers will focus on the relevance of imperialism's role in the history of the Metropole and the Republic and reevaluate the role played by diverse French thinkers in building postcolonial understandings.
