NIOD Rewind: The End of Empires and a World Remade Martin Thomas and Anne van MourikNIOD Rewind Did European colonialism truly end in the 20th century, as we often assume? In this episode Anne van Mourik (NIOD) speaks with Martin Thomas (Exeter University) about his book The End of Empires and a World Remade: A Global History of Decolonization (Princeton University Press). He argues that decolonization was not just the transfer of power from colonizers to the colonized, but a global, often violent process that forged new alliances, reshaped international connections, and left behind enduring colonial legacies. http://imperialglobalexeter.com/2025/06/26/niod-rewind-the-end-of-empires-and-a-world-remade/
