Postcolonialism and Political Theory explores the intersection
between the political and the postcolonial through an engagement
with, critique of, and challenge to some of the prevalent,
restrictive tenets and frameworks of Western political and social
thought. It is a response to the call by postcolonial studies, as
well as to the urgent need within world politics, to turn towards a
multiplicity-largely excluded from globally dominant discourses of
community, subjectivity, power and prosperity-constituted by
otherness, radical alterity, or subordination to the newly
reconsolidated West. The book offers a diverse range of essays that
re-examine and open the boundaries of political and cultural
modernity's historical domain; that look at how the racialized and
gendered and cultured subject visualizes the social from elsewhere;
that critique the limits of postcolonial theory and its claim to
celebrate diversity; and that complicate the notion of postcolonial
politics within settler societies that continue to practice exile
of the indigenous. Postcolonialism and Political Theory is an ideal
book for graduate and advanced undergraduate level study and for
those working both disciplinarily and interdisciplinarily, both
inside and outside academia.
