Description

Deleuze and the Postcolonial brings together leading thinkers from around the world to explore the connections between Deleuzian philosophy and postcolonial theory. This collection of essays examines colonial and postcolonial issues in various regions, including Asia, Africa, the Americas, India, and Palestine. Topics range from colonial government and nation-building to ethics in the context of globalization and decolonization, and from questions of desire and agency to representations and discursive power in art, cinema, and literature. This book offers a timely intervention into debates in poststructuralist, postcolonial, and postmodern studies. It will be of interest to students and scholars in cultural studies, film studies, languages and literature, political and postcolonial studies, critical theory, and social and political philosophy.
