Post-colonialisation
Refers to the times after the British left the colonies after their rule over them did not necessarily lead to economic independence their independence often goes along with setting up functioning governments and individual freedom as well as a more or less classless society
General things: colonizers brought new traditions, values and beliefs British Empire came to an end after second world war many colonies became independent but stayed in the commonwealth these values and traditions were regarded as superior by the colonized -> caused a feeling of dsplacement and roolessness while being constantly reminded of their inferiority now after independece they faced the difficult task to recreate their own identity by bridging between their native traditions and the British ones workers after 2nd WW were needed so many people from the former colonies immigrated
