Postcolonial theology has recently emerged as a site of intense
intellectual and political energy and has taken its place in the
interdisciplinary field of postcolonial studies. This volume is
animated by the conviction that postcolonial theology is now ready
for a second, deeper phase of engagement with postcolonial theory,
one that moves beyond the general to the specific. No critic has
been more emblematic of the challenging and contested field of
postcolonial theory than Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak. In this
volume, the product of a theological colloquium in which Spivak
herself participated, theologians and biblical scholars engage with
her thought in order to catalyze a diverse range of original
theological and exegetical projects. The volume opens with a
"topography" of postcolonial theology and also includes other
valuable introductory essays. At the center of the collection are
transcriptions of two extended public dialogues with Spivak on
theology and religion in general. A further dozen essays
appropriate Spivak's work for theological and ethical reflection.
The volume is also significant for the larger field of postcolonial
studies in that it is the first to focus centrally on Spivak's
immensely suggestive and vital concept of "planetarity."
