And what about the modern colonialism? How does Modern Colonialism take place? Read the opinion of an expert.
“The great stream of corruption flows from the North to the South. The Western world has placed a straw into the resources of the Third World. Today’s system of corruption has definite characteristics that resemble a modern form of colonialism and constitutes one of the biggest obstacles for development in the Third World”, says corruption hunter and special advisor, Eva Joly, to Norwatch.”

The geography of it has changed a lot, but a form of colonialism is still taking place on earth.
