This web site's goal is to address the technological changes around the world that provide opportunities for the application and analysis of postcolonial studies within the framework of humanities computing. It outlines the shape of the contemporary ‘postcolonial digital humanities’ through interrogating the ways postcolonial studies has evolved through different phases of internet culture.
