The first collection to emphasize the complex interaction between
gender and postcoloniality.
Most people in the world, from Africa to Asia and beyond, live
in the aftermath of colonialism. Their day-to-day lives are defined
by their past history as colonized peoples, often in ways that are
subtle or hard to define. In Dangerous Liaisons, eminent
contributors address the issues raised by the postcolonial
condition, considering nationhood, history, gender, and identity
from an inter-disciplinary perspective.
Among the questions they address are: What are the boundaries of
race and ethnicity in a diasporic world? How have women been so
effectively excluded from national power? What have been the
historical aftermaths of different forms of colonialism? What are
the cultural and political consequences of colonial partitions of
the nation-state? Representing an essential intervention, Dangerous
Liaisons is a crucial guidebook for those concerned with
understanding postcoloniality at the moment when it is becoming
more and more widely discussed.
