The Psychology of Colonization, deals with colonization and the psychology of the colonizer and the colonized. Mannoni saw the coloniser, with his "Prospero complex" as one in regressive flight from a father complex, using splitting and the scapegoating of the colonised to evade personal problems; the colonised as hiding resentment behind dependency. The book was later reissued under the title Prospero et Caliban


La psychologie de la Colonisation, s’occupe de la colonisation et de la psychologie du colonisateur et du colonisé. Mannoni a vu le colonisateur avec son “Complexe Próspero” comme en vol régressif d'un complexe paternel, en utilisant le fractionnement et victimization du colonisé pour échapper aux problèmes personnels; le colonisé a un ressentiment caché  derrière sa dépendance . Le livre a ensuite été reéédité sous le titre Prospero et Caliban
