Empires of Remorse

Focusing on apologies from Germany, Belgium, Britain, and Italy, the book examines how these nations confront their colonial histories and the implications for modern international relations. It highlights the evolving narratives surrounding colonialism and their impact on current dynamics between former colonizers and the colonized. Targeted at scholars in peace studies, memory studies, and postcolonial theory, it also appeals to those in political science, sociology, and development, providing a comprehensive analysis of historical and contemporary political contexts.
