The end of the Second World War and the eclipse of empires brought a wave of efforts
to reimagine the future world order. When nation states emerging from colonial rule
met at Bandung to chart alternative destinies and challenge global inequalities, they
hoped to create a less hierarchical, more pluralistic and more distributive world.
This volume considers the alternative visions put forth by the third world at the
close of WWII to recover their world-changing aspirations as well as its cultural
and intellectual breakthroughs. Demonstrating how the invention of the third world
sought to create new institutions of solidarity, new expressions and alternative narratives
to the imperial ones that they had inherited, this book reveals how writers, artists,
musicians and photographers created networks to circulate and exchange these ideas.
Exploring these ideas put forth from various regions of the global south, the chapters
trace their search for new meanings of freedom, self-determination and the promise
of development. Out of this moment came efforts in the south to create new histories
of global relations, icons and genres, and placed the promises of decolonization and
struggles for social and racial justice at the centre of global history. Showing how
efforts to remake the world intersected with and altered the trajectories of the global
Cold War, Inventing the Third World discusses how this conflict existed outside of
the traditional east-west framework and offers an insight into a radically different
'global cultural cold war'. It shows that the Cold War era was marked by attempts
to bring about a different world order that would achieve global racial, social justice
and a different kind of peace
