The Institute for Colonial and Postcolonial Studies is a multilingual forum - internationalist in spirit, interdisciplinary in method - for the comparative treatment of ideas, issues and problems related to the study of the colonial past and to the cultures of the contemporary postcolonial world.
The ICPS provides an overview of the research being undertaken relating to colonial and postcolonial studies across the various schools at the University of Leeds. The ICPS hosts a range of conferences, seminars and public lectures.

This is first in a series of "environment talks" hosted by the Institute for Colonial and Postcolonial Studies (ICPS) at the University of Leeds.
Hauntings of Empire: the Continuing Memory of Italian Expansionism
The talk argues that in approaching modern Italian culture we need always to take account of the traces left by past instances of mobility. It looks briefly at the course of Italian expansionism both immediately before and during the twenty years (1922-43) in which the Fascist regime was in power in Italy.
