Abstract:This study deals with the question of the extent to which postcolonial structures are visible and reproduced in EU documents on AI and development cooperation. To answer the research question, a literature review is being conducted. So far, the countries of the global north dominate the AI market. The countries of the global South are at risk of being left behind by technological change. This leads to the theory of postcolonialism. The concept of postcolonialism criticizes the worlds asymmetrical power distribution through which the Global North oppresses the Global South by establishing colonial practices in former colonized countries to reinforce and maintain dependence and the Global Norths power domination. The following research will therefore deal more closely with the AI and development policies of the EU and analyze them from a postcolonial perspective.
