How has the legacy of colonial economic extraction shaped the economies of former colonies? This book explores the economic systems established during the colonial period that were designed to extract resources from colonized regions for the benefit of the colonizers. It discusses the ways in which colonial powers exploited natural resources, labor, and markets in Africa, Asia, and the Americas, and how these practices have left a lasting economic legacy. The narrative examines the political and economic challenges faced by post-colonial countries in overcoming the legacies of exploitation, such as the disruption of local economies, the establishment of extractive industries, and the creation of unequal trade relationships. By analyzing the ongoing economic disparities between former colonial powers and their colonies, the book offers insights into the long-term effects of colonialism on global economic systems and the struggles for economic independence and justice.
