How do colonial legacies shape contemporary realities in the Arab-majority region? What possibilities exist for decolonial futures? This groundbreaking volume brings together interdisciplinary explorations of the enduring colonial condition in the Arab-majority region, moving beyond reductive analyses and engaging deeply with a variety of histories, lived experiences, and theoretical tools. Across its chapters, the collection exposes how various structures and institutions operating at diverse sites and scales constitute a contemporary entangled coloniality, and offers pathways and resources towards moving beyond this from, for, and contra the region. In the shadow of ongoing colonial violence, this collection is both an urgent critique and a hopeful call for new ways of knowing and reimagining the future of the Arab-majority region.

‘This volume is sure to open up transdisciplinary and transregional conversations about the crucial meaning of the decolonial and its liberatory potential. Theoretically sophisticated and in touch with critical international thought, it is distinctive not just for its grounding in empirically rich analyses of the current colonial condition in what Kassem calls the Arab-majority region, but also for its hopeful offer to think both about and for the region.’ Lila Abu-Lughod, Columbia University
