DESCRIPTION:  Political Theory and Global History in Dialogue” commences an
  interdisciplinary dialogue on the central question—what is anticolonial so
 lidarity? It is important to pose this question now\, when appeals to “soli
 darity” proliferate among politicians and public health officials seeking t
 o legitimate otherwise unpopular mobility restrictions. Their picture of so
 lidarity in elite frameworks of nationalist-communitarianism or liberal-int
 ernationalism\, however\, contrasts sharply with ways of seeing solidarity 
 typical of transnational anticolonial movements. Engaged citizens and activ
 ists continue to contest local injustices rooted in global structures of Eu
 ropean colonialism and the legacies of informal imperialism: from the so-ca
 lled Mediterranean “refugee crisis” to state-corporate invasion of indigeno
 us territory at Standing Rock or Unist’o’ten. From this perspective\, the r
 hetorical performance of a “crisis of solidarity” occludes the vibrant hist
 ory and present of more radical\, transformative practices of anticolonial 
 solidarity. We thus propose to approach our question by thinking about both
  solidarity and anticolonialism together\, as well as reflecting on the imp
 ortance of histories of freedom\, oppression\, and resistance in the format
 ion of contemporary solidarities.
