The Commonwealth: a growing reassessment
The Commonwealth, an intergovernmental organization primarily composed of former British colonies, faces increasing contestation. Founded in 1949, it was initially created to maintain ties between the United Kingdom and its former colonies, promoting shared values of democracy and development. However, in recent decades, a significant portion of its members has begun to question the relevance of the institution. This reassessment is accompanied by a growing rejection of the British monarchy, viewed as the last symbol of a bygone colonial era.
