Postcolonial Text is an international, refereed, multi-disciplinary, free access electronic journal presenting a global forum for both the critical discussion of postcolonial literature, culture, history, and theory, as well as postcolonial poetry and fiction. Thus Postcolonial Text provides a public space on the internet through which to disseminate otherwise difficult-to-access literary texts among a larger, truly international audience. It is concerned with ways of negotiating the various epistemological, cultural, social, and political links and disjunctures between postcolonial, western, and diasporic communities of writers, readers, and academics.
