Utvelgelsesprosess
Utvelgelsesprosess, also known as the process of decolonization, refers to the political, economic, and social changes that occurred in many former colonies after World War II. This process was driven by a combination of factors, including the rise of anti-colonial movements, the United Nations' promotion of self-determination, and the economic and political pressures faced by the colonial powers. The utvelgelsesprosess was marked by a wave of independence movements, with many colonies gaining independence in the 1950s and 1960s. The process was not always peaceful, as it often involved violence and conflict, particularly in regions with significant ethnic or religious divisions. Despite these challenges, the utvelgelsesprosess led to the creation of numerous new nations and the redrawing of the global political map. The legacy of this process continues to shape international relations and global politics today.
