Changing Theory

Concepts from the Global South

Herausgeber: Menon, Dilip M

Beschreibung

This book is an original, systematic, and radical attempt at decolonizing critical theory. Drawing on linguistic concepts from languages from Asia, Africa, the Arab world, and South America, it explores the entailments of words while discussing their conceptual implications for the humanities and the social sciences everywhere.
