Systematically addresses the philosophical implications of the
postcolonial. In this book, Emanuela Fornari systematically examines
the philosophical implications of postcolonial studies. She considers
postcolonial critique not as a school or a current of thought but
rather as a multiform constellation that-from the celebrated
Orientalism of Edward Said to the contributions of authors like Homi
Bhabha, Gayatri Spivak, Ranajit Guha, and Dipesh Chakrabarty-has
called into question the assumptions that underlie key concepts in the
history of philosophy. Fornari addresses themes such as history and
memory, borders, the subject, and translation, engaging classical
authors such as Kant, Hegel, and Marx alongside more contemporary
theorizations by authors such as Walter Benjamin, Michel Foucault,
Jacques Derrida, Étienne Balibar, and Jacques Rancière.
