W. E. B. Du Bois and the Problems of the Twenty-First Century
utilizes Du Bois's thought and texts to develop an informed
critical theory of contemporary society. This book broadens the
base of critical theory, making it more multicultural, transethnic,
transgender, and non-Western European philosophy focused by placing
it in dialogue with theory and phenomena that had been heretofore
woefully neglected. Taking the preeminent black intellectual of the
twentieth century as his primary point of departure, Reiland Rabaka
identifies and analyzes several key contributions that Du Bois and
the black racial tradition offer to those interested in
redeveloping and racially revising contemporary critical social
theory. With chapters on critical race theory, postcolonial theory,
feminism, and Marxism, this volume builds bridges from Africana
Studies to disparate discursive communities, accessibly
demonstrating Du Bois's, and the black radical tradition's,
contributions to, and the potential impact on, a wide-range of new
social scientific research and radical political struggles.
