Centre for Colonial and Settler Studies
CASS promotes critical inquiry into the history, theoretical framing, and contemporary legacies of colonialism on a global scale. We foster work that places colonial and settler colonial formations in comparative and connected frames.

We welcome inquiries about the centre and its activities. Email us at clowrie@uow.edu.au or follow us on Twitter at @cass_uow.
