Could you help me with finding up-to-date literature on the definition and classification of colonialism?
Essentially the title.
The literature needs to be accessible and free to read online.
For my media-science assignment about Colonialism and Representation in "Magic: The Gathering" I think a more than conversational understanding of colonialism would be appropriate.
Thank you in advance!

Did colonialism in Africa occur before or after Colonialism in India?
Im confused because some texts I read date colonialism in India by Portuguese explorers back to the 15th century, but discuss the same explorers coming from forming trading posts along African coastline, however in a different text I understood that real colonialism in Africa occurred as late as 1900s?

"Around us knowledge has been extinguished, and recruitment of men of religion and men of law has ceased; that is to say, we have made Muslim society much more miserable, more disordered, more ignorant, and more barbarous than it had been before knowing us." -Alexis de Tocqueville on Algeria

Help me understand Stokely Carmichael's "influence/power" dichotomy?
"Fourth, I do not think that liberals understand the (4) difference between/influence and power,and the liberals get confused seeking influence rather than power. The conservatives on the right wing,or the fascists, understand power, though, and they move to consolidate power while the liberal pushes for influence."
This differentiation is giving me trouble. Is "influence" somewhat interchangeable with clout or kudos?

if there are any sensible studies of the social sources of colonialism?
Dear friends, I have a question. Does anyone know if there are any sensible studies of the social sources of colonialism? Is it even possible to talk about something like this? Given that in the societies of the colonisers there were sometimes philosophical movements designed to justify colonialism, is there any research on the societies of the colonising powers? Or is there anyone who could tell me about it? Maybe I'm wrong, but from my perspective, this is a kind of a blank spot in postcolonial studies at the moment, and I would like to know if anyone has done any research on this at all.
