全球化和后殖民性可能是当今社会和文化理论中最重要的两个术语。自20世纪80年代以来，它们一直是解释世界政治和经济关系转变的两个主要范式，随着时间的推移，世界似乎变得越来越相互依存，曾经界定民族文化的界限变得模糊。关于全球化和后殖民主义的争论现在是如此普遍，关于这些主题的文献如此广泛，以至于很难对其进行总结或分类。在某种程度上，全球化主导了社会科学中关于社会和经济性质的大多数辩论，因此必须将其视为人类学和社会学等学科的构成要素之一。同样，很难想象文学研究的一个领域，从中世纪到后现代主义，不受后殖民理论和后殖民性辩论的影响。虽然不同的全球化和后殖民主义作家可能对这些范畴的确切含义或其长期影响有不同的解释
Globalization and postcoloniality are perhaps two of the most important terms in social and cultural theory today. Since the s, they have functioned as two of the dominant paradigms for explaining the transformation of political and economic relationships in a world that seems to become increasingly interdependent with the passing of time, with boundaries that once defined national cultures becoming fuzzy. The debates on globalization and postcolonialism are now so universal in character, and the literature on these topics is so extensive, that they are difficult to summarize or categorize. And to the extent that it dominates most debates on the nature of society and economy in the social sciences, globalization must be considered one of the constitutive elements of disciplines such as anthropology and sociology. Similarly, it is difficult to conceive an area of literary studies, from medievalism to postmodernism, that is not affected by debates on postcolonial theory and postcoloniality. While diverse writers on globalization and postcolonialism might have differing interpretations of the exact meaning of these categories, or their long-term effect
