Document Summary
Imperialism: the practice, the theory and the attitudes of a dominating metropolitan center that rules a distant territory (edward said) Colonialism: almost always a consequence of imperialism, is the implanting of settlements on distant territory (edward said) Settler-colonialism: describes colonies in which, over time, the invaders and their descendants annihilate, displace, and/or marginalize the people already living in the territory, leading to a majority non-indigenous population. South africa is sometimes considered a settler colony. Settler colonies are opposed to colonies of occupation in which indigenous people remain in the majority but the territory is administered by a foreign power (bill ashcroft, gareth griffiths, and helen tiffin) Asian immigration (except for filipinos) completely ended.
