Out of Africa (eBook, PDF)

Post-Structuralism's Colonial Roots

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In this book, Ahluwalia makes a convincing and controversial case that post-structuralism has colonial and postcolonial roots. This wide-ranging discussion, ranging across authors as different as Foucault, Derrida, Fanon, Althusser, Cixous, Bourdieu and Lyotard, enables the reader to make connections that have remained unnoticed or been neglected. It also brings back into view a history of struggles, both political and theoretical, that has shaped the landscape of critique in the social sciences and humanities.
