New Books in Critical Theory

Kim talks with Margaret Nash about settler colonialism.

Margaret Nash is an Emeritus Professor in the Graduate School of Education at the University of California Riverside.

You can watch her explain her research on settler colonialism and land grant universities in her talk: “An Unacknowledged Legacy.“

Her recent article “Entangled Pasts: Land-Grant Colleges and American Indian Dispossession” Higher Education Quarterly 59 No. 4 (November 2019) examines the long reach of settler colonialism in US Higher Education.

In the episode, Margaret references a book of political theory by Adam Dahl, titled Empire of the People: Settler Colonialism and the Foundations of Modern Democratic Thought.
