Please read the Introduction and chapters one and two in Adom Getachew's Worldmaking After Empire before answering these questions.

Question 1. In chapter one, Getachew describes the dominant narrative regarding decolonization among Western scholars. How do Western scholars explain decolonization? In contrast, how did African nation-builders and world-makers conceive of decolonization?

Question 2. In chapter one, Getachew describes Kwame Nkrumah's emphasis on non-domination and self-determination. According to Nkrumah, how was Western domination of African countries still ongoing, even after the end of colonialism as alien rule? Why did Nkrumah argue for non-domination and self-determination as responses to continued Western dominance in the post-colonial period?

Question 3. In chapter one, Getachew discusses what she refers to as "postcolonial cosmopolitanism." How did the African nation-builders and world-makers she describes understand cosmopolitanism as response to ongoing imperial domination?

Question 4. In chapter two, Getachew writes, "Wilson and Smut's reassociation effectively cast self-determination as a racially differentiated principle which was fully compatible with imperial rule" (40). Please explain what she means and how Wilson and Smut's did so.

Question 5. In chapter two, Getachew describes the "burdened and racialized membership" of Eithiopia and Liberia in the League of Nations, due to unequal integration into the international system. Please explain how Eithiopia and Liberia were treated by the League of Nations and how that extended Western dominance over those states, even after the supposed fall of colonialism.
