Summary: "In twelve critical and interdisciplinary chapters, this text examines the relationship between the fantastic in novels, movies and video games and real-world debates about nationalism, globalization and cosmopolitanism. This anthology charts a space, where postcolonial theory and science fiction and fantasy studies work to expand our understanding of the fantastic, while expanding the scope of postcolonial discussions"--Provided by publisher
