Abstract
When examining geopolitical ties in settler and "post" colonial contexts, what are the defining features of modern coloniality? Given the existence of these colonialities, what specific forms of solidarity are necessary? The preface of this issue contends that India and Israel are integral components of a contemporary geocolonial framework, drawing upon historical and current elements of the occupations in Kashmir and Palestine. It is crucial to acknowledge and understand the ongoing colonial practices and to have a reflective sense of solidarity in order to accurately identify and define the situation. The articles provide a comprehensive account of the history of colonialism and the concept of solidarity. Its explore various aspects such as the intricacies of life and death, grassroots efforts in organising archives, and the establishment and dismantling of solidarity in the specific settings of Kashmir and Palestine.
