Politics and Post-Colonial Theory - African Inflections (Paperback, New)

This ground-breaking book makes sense of the complexities and dynamics of post-colonial African politics, illustrating how post-colonial theory has marginalised a huge part of its constituency, namely Africa.
Politics and Post-colonial Theory traces how African identity has been constituted and reconstituted by examining movements such as
* negritude
* the rise of nationalism
* decolonisation
and questions how helpful post-colonial analysis can be in understanding the complexities which define institutions such as
* the nation-state
* civil society
* human rights
* citizenship
Politics and Post-colonial Theory bravely breaks down disciplinary boundaries. Its radical vision will be essential reading for all those engaged in Politics, post-colonial studies and African studies.
