| Abstract | "While anticolonialism has been largely ignored in mainstream Euro-American social thought, this book shows that anticolonial thinkers, activists and movements around the world produce novel, innovative and vital social thought. By challenging imperialism and colonialism, anticolonial struggles offer new critical ways of looking at society"-- Provided by publisher. |
