WHAT DOES SEMICOLONIAL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Semi-colony

A semi-colony is, in Marxist theory, a country which is officially an independent and sovereign nation, but which is in reality very much dependent and dominated by another country. This domination could take different forms - ▪ economic, ▪ political, ▪ military ▪ cultural/ideological. ▪ technological. ▪ demographic: the immigration into the semi-colony of large numbers of settlers from the imperialist countries which dominate the semi-colony. The term semi-colony is often used interchangeably with "neo-colony". Some semi-colonies never had much of a colonial administration before they became formally sovereign states, but most of them did. Some semi-colonies were "settler colonies" attracting large numbers of foreign immigrants, while in other semi-colonies, the indigenous population always remained the vast majority.
