The book cover for 'Spaces of Anticolonialism' by Stephen Legg. The cover features a black-and-white aerial photograph of a densely populated urban area, overlaid with a sepia-toned filter at the top. The title, "Spaces of Anticolonialism," is displayed in large white serif text, with the subtitle "Delhiβs Urban Governmentalities" in smaller uppercase letters below. The author's name, "Stephen Legg," appears in white against a burnt-orange background at the bottom. The top of the cover includes the series title, "Geographies of Justice and Social Transformation 65," in small white uppercase letters.
New from the University of Georgia Press @ugapress.bsky.social , @stephenlegg11.bsky.social 's Spaces of Anticolonialism explores the anticolonial movements in Delhi before Indiaβs independence, analysing subaltern geographies and hidden spaces through a spatial governmentality lens. bit.ly/LeggSOA
Your talks are lovely openings to other possibilities Shannon, always.
There is something very poised about discussing these spaces as circulation architectures and not only as the end points of larger infrastructures.
