초록

This study examines how non-resistant coloniality was historically formed, drawing on the case of the Karen in Burma. It criticizes that existing discussion on colonialism is preoccupied with locating colonial powers and subjects in antagonistic positions, only regarding the former as the oppressors, the latter as the resistants. In contrast, Homi Bhabha makes an attempt to overcome this binary approach by introducing ambivalence, mimicry and hybridity to show interactions between the two groups. However, this study reveals the limitations of Homi Bhabha's approach since he is not exceptional in identifying colonial subjects as the resistants in the end. This study pays an attention to a particular context where the mimicry and hybridity of the Karen took shape and points out the importance of the understanding of the historical formation of coloniality in association with the Karen. For that reason, this study focuses on how non-resistant colonial subjects were formed, taking a close look at the pattern of ethnic relations in Burma over history. The purpose of this study is to deepen and expand the discourse of post-colonialism by revealing the different path of forming colonial subjects as non-resistant people.

Abstract

This study examines how non-resistant coloniality was historically formed, drawing on the case of the Karen in Burma. It criticizes that existing discussion on colonialism is preoccupied with locating colonial powers and subjects in antagonistic positions, only regarding the former as the oppressors, the latter as the resistants. In contrast, Homi Bhabha makes an attempt to overcome this binary approach by introducing ambivalence, mimicry and hybridity to show interactions between the two groups. However, this study reveals the limitations of Homi Bhabha's approach since he is not exceptional in identifying colonial subjects as the resistants in the end. This study pays an attention to a particular context where the mimicry and hybridity of the Karen took shape and points out the importance of the understanding of the historical formation of coloniality in association with the Karen. For that reason, this study focuses on how non-resistant colonial subjects were formed, taking a close look at the pattern of ethnic relations in Burma over history. The purpose of this study is to deepen and expand the discourse of post-colonialism by revealing the different path of forming colonial subjects as non-resistant people.
