Geopolitics and Decolonization: Perspectives from the Global South: Global Critical Caribbean Thought

Editat de Fernanda Frizzo Bragato, Professor Lewis R. Gordon
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 dec 2017
Gathering researchers from or towards Global South epistemologies, this book enriches the debate on crucial questions for liberation in the South and the improvement of South relations. It argues that coloniality and colonialism are not outdated phenomena of the historical past, but contemporary marks that remain repressed. The dominance of Eurocentric paradigm in the social sciences explains the long-lasting detachment between thinkers and politicians from the Global South, which have been historically presented according to their respective relations with the West (Europe and North America). The dialogue on common problems and challenges to people and societies in the South, largely derived from their colonial past and condition, is still sparing. This book actively promotes and demonstrates the value of intercultural dialogue and debate amongst voices from within the Global South on issues to do with decoloniality, cultural rights, law and politics.

Recenzii

Geopolitics and Decolonization offers a timely contribution to contemporary critical scholarship interested in fields such as international relations, law, human rights, political philosophy, and development studies. A collective work of excellent scholarship, it addresses ideas, developments and concerns from the Global South, which are otherwise largely ignored, however crucial to our understanding of our pluriversal world.
This cutting edge collection of well known scholars and creative young people is a must read for anyone interested in decolonization, socialist futures, and ingenious philosophy. The collection brings together exciting new thinkers from the Global South enhancing South-South dialogue and making a major contribution to the shift of geographies of reason.
Bragato and Gordon assemble here a stunningly diverse and powerful set of essays, each of which simultaneously poses the question regarding what it means to decolonize those whose humanity has long being denied, and in response persuasively reflects on the requisite challenge of expanding our conceptual reach into the domains of thought and action that such a process necessarily confronts.
