Description

Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak challenges our understanding of Asia in this major work. A collection of essays that intervenes in the complex issues surrounding the concept of Asia, exploring its cultural and political significance in both the global South and the metropole. Featuring contributions on topics such as Human Rights, the Caucasus, and the turbulent present, this book offers a nuanced examination of postcolonialism. With essays including "Foucault and Najibullah," "Moving Devi," "Responsibility," and "Megacity," Spivak's work is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in these subjects. A significant intervention into our understanding of Asia, this book is a valuable addition to the field of literary and cultural theory.
