This book rethinks political mobilisation in postcolonial states through a lens of decolonial feminism and mobilities, showing how intersectional power unfolds across diverse levels of digital media, from infrastructures, digital platforms, and user interactions to subjectifications and emotions.

Syntia Hasenöhrl explains in this book how gender and postcoloniality interrelate with sexuality, class, ethnicity, and age in shaping digital political engagement. She argues that while digital media offer opportunities for decolonizing state-society relations, these opportunities remain unrealized because an intersectional gender-postcoloniality nexus impairs the liberatory potentials of online political mobilisation. Her analysis demonstrates how intersectional gender dynamics shape liberatory political mobilisation in postcolonial states within the increasingly important arena of digital media.

Intersectional Im/Mobilisation and Postcolonial States is written for researchers, students, and interested readers seeking to understand the everyday dimensions of postcolonial state-society relations, extended and intersectional analyses of digital colonialism, and the liberatory, especially decolonial-feminist potentials of digital media.
