In this major intervention into the 'Asian Century', Gayatri
Chakravorty Spivak challenges the reader to re-think Asia, in its
political and cultural complexity, in the global South and in the
metropole.
- Major work from one of the world’s most distinguished
literary and cultural theorists
- Intervenes in the fraught issues generated by ideas of
Asia
- Featured essays include “Foucault and Najibullah,”
“Moving Devi,” “Responsibility,” and
“Megacity”
- Other chapters focus on, among other things, Human Rights, and
the turbulent "present" of the Caucasus
- Essential reading for anyone interested in postcolonialism, and devotees of Spivak’s writing
