An innovative and accessible introduction to the politics of
postcolonialism
Covers both the cultural and political elements ofpostcolonialism, including issues of resistance, contemporary neocolonialism
and feminism
'Rumina Sethi explores the history and the difficulties of postcolonial
theory and ... urges fresh thinking about its political andsocial implications.' -Dame Gillian Beer, King Edward VII Professor
Emeritus at the University of Cambridge
In a period of vast global restructuring, unrestricted capital has eroded the traditional distinctions between nations and nationhood. In The Politics of Postcolonialism, Rumina Sethi devises a new form of postcolonial studies that makes sense of these dramatic changes.
Returning to the origins of the discipline, Sethi identifies it as a tool for
political protest and activism among people of the third world. Using a
sophisticated mix of spatial theory and local politics, she examines the
uneven terrain of contemporary anti-capitalism and political upsurges in
Africa, Asia and Latin America, emphasising postcolonial politics, dissent and resistance.
This original and persuasive work frees the discipline from its current
preoccupation with hybridity and multiculturalism, giving students of politics, cultural studies and international relations a new perspective on postcolonialism.
