Power Over People

Postcolonialism as a theoretical cogitation is bracketed under cultural studies. Postcolonial studies in literature refers to the narratives from or on the nations that were colonised previously. The history is such that even countries like America and Great Britain were colonised before the transformation in the position and outlook from colonised to coloniser. Yet, the narratives of Great Britain or even America do not fall under the categorisation of postcolonial studies. This is because of their elevation to the status of super power and big brother. Given this context what remains the logic behind this nomenclature. For the sake of simpler understanding, any country colonised by European countries, particularly Great Britain is referred to as a colonised country. This will constitute India, Middle East, Africa, Carribean Islands, Latin America, Australia and Sri Lanka among others. It can be easily said that Europe as a continent, invaded then subdued rest of the continents in the world.
