===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 2022<br> Iraq ===== Definition ===== Post-colonial segregation refers to the continued separation and discrimination between different racial or ethnic groups within a country or region, even after the end of colonial rule. This segregation can be seen in various aspects of society, such as housing, education, employment, and social interaction. Post-colonial segregation is often rooted in the historical legacy of colonialism, which created hierarchies and divisions between different groups based on race, ethnicity, and social class. During the colonial era, the colonizers often implemented policies that advantaged certain groups and marginalized others, leading to the creation of segregated communities and unequal access to resources. After gaining independence, many countries inherited these divisions and continued to experience segregation, as it became deeply embedded in societal structures and practices. Segregated neighborhoods and housing patterns often persist, as marginalized groups continue to be concentrated in specific areas with limited access to quality infrastructure, services, and opportunities. In terms of education, there may be disparities in resources and quality of schools, resulting in unequal access to education and perpetuating inequalities. Discrimination in the job market can also occur, leading to limited employment opportunities for certain groups and perpetuating economic disparities. In addition to structural forms of segregation, there may also be social segregation, where different groups have limited interaction and social integration. This can lead to the perpetuation of stereotypes, prejudices, and social divisions between different racial or ethnic groups. Efforts to address post-colonial segregation involve recognizing and addressing the historical and structural factors that contribute to inequality and discrimination. This may involve implementing policies and programs that promote equal access to education, housing, and employment opportunities, as well as initiatives that encourage social integration and cross-cultural understanding. Overall, post-colonial segregation is a complex issue that requires long-term efforts to address the deep-seated inequalities and divisions that exist between different racial or ethnic groups in post-colonial societies. ===== Synonyms ===== The following terms are synonymous with postcolonial segregation: post colonial segregation.
