When Frantz Fanon's critiques of racism, sexism, colonialism,
capitalism, and humanism are brought into the ever-widening orbit
of Africana critical theory something unprecedented in the annals
of Africana intellectual history happens: five distinct forms of
Fanonism emerge. Forms of Fanonism: Frantz Fanon's Critical Theory
and the Dialectics of Decolonization is discursively distinguished
from other engagements of Fanon's thought and texts insofar as it
is the first study to consciously examine his contributions to
Africana Studies and critical theory or, rather, the Africana
tradition of critical theory. Forms of Fanonism identifies and
intensely analyzes Fanon's contributions to the deconstruction and
reconstruction of Africana Studies, radical politics, and critical
social theory. In highlighting his unique 'solutions' to the
'problems' of racism, sexism, colonialism, capitalism, and
humanism, five distinct forms of Fanonism materialize. These five
forms of Fanonism allow contemporary critical theorists to
innovatively explore the ways in which his thought and texts can be
dialectically put to use in relieving the wretched experience of
this generation's wretched of the earth. Critics can also apply
these forms to deconstruct and reconstruct Africana Studies,
radical politics, and critical social theory using their
anti-imperialist interests. Throughout Forms of Fanonism, Reiland
Rabaka critically dialogues with Fanon, incessantly asking his
corpus critical questions and seeking from it crucial answers. This
book, in short, solemnly keeps with Fanon's own predilection for
connecting critical theory to revolutionary praxis by utilizing his
thought and texts as paradigms and points of departure to deepen
and develop the Africana tradition of critical theory.
