Much of the intellectual effort in the surging field of settler colonial studies since the late 1990s has been to theorize the structural distinction between colonialism and settler colonialism. While the field has always been interdisciplinary, its emphasis on settler colonialism as a political structure has largely privileged political history
Archiving Settler Colonialism: Culture, Race, and Space brings together 15 essays from across the globe, to capture a moment in settler colonial studies that turns increasingly towards new cultural archives for settler colonial research. Essays on hitherto under-examined materials—including postage stamps, musical scores, urban parks, and psychiatric records—reflect on how cultural texts archive moments of settler self-fashioning. Archiving Settler Colonialism also expands settler colonial studies’ reach as an international academic discipline, bringing together scholarly research about the British breakaway settler colonies with underanalyzed non-white, non-Anglophone settler societies. The essays together illustrate settler colonial cultures as—for all their similarities—ultimately divergent constructions, locally situated and produced of specific power relations within the messy operations of imperial domination.

Yu-ting Huang is Assistant Professor of East Asian Studies at Wesleyan University, USA. Rebecca Weaver-Hightower is Professor of English at North Dakota State University, USA.
