The Routledge Companion Literature and the Global South offers a
comprehensive overview of the field at a key moment in its
development—a snapshot of where Global South literary studies
stands in its second decade. As the aftermath of a string of global
cataclysms since the rise of neoliberal globalization has
demonstrated, it is the poor, the disenfranchised, and the
marginalized who consistently bear the brunt of the suffering. What
defines the Global South is the recognition across the world that
globalization’s promised bounties have not materialized. It has
failed as a global master narrative. Global South studies centers
on three general areas: globalization, its aftermath/failure, and
how those on the economic bottom survive it. Organized into three
sections, this volume consists of original essays by 25
contributors from around the world. Part one focuses on the origins
and objects of Global South studies, and how this field has come to
define and historicize its organizing concept. Part two considers
subsequent critical developments in Global South studies,
particularly those that embrace interdisciplinary and
transdisciplinary approaches. Part three features case studies
which highlight a range of applications and interventions. The
contributors critique the boundaries and definitions explored in
the earlier sections, and push ‘settled’ literatures or methods
into new analytical spaces. This innovative collection is an
invaluable resource for anyone studying and researching global
South studies and literature, but also those interested in world
literature, contemporary literature, postcolonialism, decolonizing
the curriculum, critical race studies, gender studies, and
politics.
