"Colonial violence" as a book category encompasses works—fiction, nonfiction, memoir, and scholarship—that examine the physical, structural, cultural, and symbolic harms wrought by colonialism and settler-colonial projects. It includes accounts of dispossession, massacres, forced labor, sexual violence, legal and bureaucratic coercion, and policies that destroyed or marginalized indigenous societies, as well as the everyday violence of occupation, racialized policing, and economic extraction. Books in this genre often trace the intimate and systemic links between empire, power, and violence across time and place, exploring perpetrators, perpetrators' institutions, and survivors' experiences and resistance. It also covers memory, trauma, restitution, and decolonial responses, offering historical documentation, critical analysis, personal testimony, and fictional narratives that foreground the human and social consequences of colonial domination.
