Colonialism in The Expanse : A study of otherness, diaspora, and language in The Expanse

This essay examined postcolonialism in the first two novels in The Expanse series, Leviathan Wakes and Caliban’s War. Using otherness, creole language, and diaspora, this essay argued that The Expanse used three groups to demonstrate postcolonialism, showing that the Belters are the oppressed group and Earth oppressors. The conclusion of this essay is that there are several instances of postcolonialism in these novels, and the Belters are the oppressed group.
