Description
Being Anti-Colonial by Jayan Nayar presents a profound critique of contemporary engagements with decolonial theory and its popular usage. This work argues that much of current discourse within critical theory overlooks the intricate underpinnings of the anti-colonial struggle, instead situating itself within the post-colonial status quo. Nayar's book serves as a radical call to authentically re-engage with the anti-colonial ethos, emphasizing the need to confront enduring colonial architectures that define our present. The book is divided into two parts, first elucidating conceptual groundwork for reconceptualising 'anti-colonial' as a philosophical stance deeply entwined with global (post)colonial reality. Being Anti-Colonial invites and challenges the academic community to critically revisit and re-energize the conversation about coloniality.
