Abstract
This paper begins with Jacques Derrida's ‘Europe’ on an‐Other heading and Claudio Minca's (2003 Environment and Planning D: Society and Space 21 160–8) suggestion that critical human geographers need to become more attentive to their own geographical predispositions and positionalities. The paper focuses on some lessons from postcolonial writing and asks to what extent we have been successful in decolonizing (and reshaping) geographies of Europe in the ways in which we respond to transformations at the borders of Europe. The paper concludes with a discussion of efforts to ‘provincialize’ and decolonize Euro‐geographies, and the kinds of ‘new cartographies’ of Europe we might write and teach.
