The discussion concludes by reviewing paradigmatic socio-political logics of hybrid sovereign, disciplinary, and biopower within colonial theatres of criminal accusation, as revealed by the preceding analyses of archived Albertan texts. It traces a ‘coloniality’ within accusatory performances framed by racialized, patriarchal, and marginalizing criminal justice institutions (Maldonado-Torres 2007). In composite, the chapters point to several key social and political foundations through which accusations of crime provided conditions for colonial criminalization to emerge. It is significant that such accusations and the law that they sustained were from the outset placed in the service of dispossessing social, political, and economic ambitions. The book concludes by reflecting on two legacy bequests of colonial accusation that might be used to think in ways that exceed the socio-political horizons that contour today’s vast, unequal, and repressive criminal justice systems.
