Nations Ascendant: The Global Campaign against Empire and the Making of Our World


Next in Arts and Humanities

Zaib un Nisa Aziz is Assistant Professor in the History of Modern British Empire in at the University of South Florida, Tampa. Her first book Nations Ascendant: The Global Campaign against Empire and the Making of Our World,  (under contract with Yale University Press),tells the story of an international movement against imperialism. Focusing on global networks that appeared during the interwar years, this book chronicles the rise of a radical new generation of political workers across the colonial world who saw the Bolshevik Revolution as a transformative and epochal shift in world history, one which created the prospect of a world without empires. By examining their global discourse, the book shows how universal self-determination not only became the aim of national movements but counter-intuitively also the objective for radical internationalism.
