How do we understand empire in the modern age? In this 10-Minute Talk, Professor Gurminder K Bhambra challenges the idea that modern nation-states emerged as a result of the break-up of empire, and instead invites us to rethink what defines empire entirely. By considering different colonial processes and the impact these have on how we understand empires, Bhambra unpacks the specific characteristics of European empire in the modern period.

Speaker: Professor Gurminder K Bhambra FBA, Professor of Postcolonial and Decolonial Studies, School of Global Studies, University of Sussex
