Description
Julietta Singh challenges the notion of self-mastery and its implications for human subjectivity. By examining the work of anticolonial thinkers such as Fanon and Gandhi, she reveals how their ideas about self-control can perpetuate colonial logic.
This critical analysis argues that a more productive approach to human subjectivity is needed, one that moves beyond concepts of mastery and control.
