Postcoloniality, Globalization, and Diaspora: What's Next? looks
forward within the field of postcolonial studies and goes beyond
the notion of hybridity and postcolonial reason beyond just
portraying it. This volume offers a futuristic vision going beyond
the common paradigms of postcolonility, diaspora, and
globalization, speculating a framework beyond master-slave
dialectic. This new paradigm locates a humanitarian space purifying
ego through various forms: writing, philosophizing, and theorizing
new ideas. Authors focus on writers from Mauritius to India.
