Portuguese term

constitutiva e relacional da colonialidade

Portuguese to English Social Sciences Government / Politics academic text
Hi everyone! I'm translating a series of academic abstracts and am having trouble with the phrasing of this in an abstract on the "giro decolonial". Any help appreciated! Thanks!

Como explicar a reprodução das novas formas de colonialismo sem a consideração das novas formas de imperialismo? Neste artigo, assim, proponho o conceito de Imperialidade como uma lacuna que impede a explicação dos mecanismos de reprodução da colonialidade. Ao entendê-la como lógica do imperialismo, ***constitutiva e relacional da colonialidade***, observo ainda que as estratégias de descolonização devem ser muito mais dirigidas à “Imperialidade” do que à modernidade propriamente dita.

... now that I wrote it down, I realize "colonialism" actually sounds good here.
Mario Freitas Aug 10, 2017:
Indeed, Muriel I thought of "colonialism" too, but the text implied the regime, IMO. Check this:
"...the logic of imperialism, which is an integrating part of, and directly related to the colonial regime"
OR
"...the logic of imperialism, which is an integrating part of, and directly related to colonialism."
Muriel Vasconcellos Aug 10, 2017:
"-idade" For me, the text is referring to 'imperialism' and 'colonialism'. Please tell me if you think I'm misinterpreting it.
