The Future of Postcolonial Studies celebrates the twenty-fifth
anniversary of the publication of The Empire Writes Back by the now
famous troika - Bill Ashcroft, Gareth Griffiths and Helen Tiffin.
When The Empire Writes Back first appeared in 1989, it put
postcolonial cultures and their post-invasion narratives on the
map. This vibrant collection of fifteen chapters by both
established and emerging scholars taps into this early mapping
while merging these concerns with present trends which have been
grouped as: comparing, converting, greening, post-queering and
utopia. The postcolonial is a centrifugal force that continues to
energize globalization, transnational, diaspora, area and queer
studies. Spanning the colonial period from the 1860s to the
present, The Future of Postcolonial Studies ventures into other
postcolonies outside of the Anglophone purview. In reassessing the
nation-state, language, race, religion, sexuality, the environment,
and the very idea of 'the future,' this volume reasserts the notion
that postcolonial is an "anticipatory discourse" and bears
testimony to the driving energy and thus the future of postcolonial
studies.
