책 소개
Postcolonialism explores the political, social, and cultural effects of decolonization, continuing the anti-colonial challenge to western dominance. This lively and innovative account of both the history and key debates of postcolonialism discusses its importance as an historical condition, and as a means of changing the way we think about the world. Key concepts and issues are considered, with reference to particular cultural and historical examples, such as the status of aboriginal people, cultural nomadism, Western feminism, the innovative fiction of Garcia Marquez and Salman Rushdie, and the postcolonial cities of London, Bombay and Cairo. The work of theorists such as Homi Bhabha, Edward Said, Frantz Fanon, and Gayatri Spivak are woven into the discussion, making this fascinating subject relevant and accessible to a wider audience.

About the Series: Combining authority with wit, accessibility, and style, Very Short Introductions offer an introduction to some of life's most interesting topics. Written by experts for the newcomer, they demonstrate the finest contemporary thinking about the central problems and issues in hundreds of key topics, from philosophy to Freud, quantum theory to Islam.


This book is quite unlike any other introduction to postcolonialism. Robert Young examines the political, social, and cultural after-effects of decolonization by presenting situations, experiences, and testimony rather than examining the abstract theory. He situates the debate in a wide cultural context discussing its importance as an historical condition, using examples such as the status of aboriginal people, of those dispossessed from their land, Algerian rai music, postcolonial feminism, and global social and ecological movements. Above all, Young argues that postcolonialism offers a political philosophy of activism that contests the current situation of global inequality, which in a new way continues the anti-colonial struggles of the past.

로버트 영은 오늘날의 문화이론이 겉으로 드러낸 의도와 달리 혼종성처럼 과거에 문화와 인종을 정의하는 데 사용되었던 주요 개념과 용어들을 상당수 반복하고 새롭게 사용하고 있다고 주장한다. 영은 최근의 이론의 패러다임들과 문화와 문명과 인종 차이에 관한 19세기의 저술들 사이의 연결고리들을 추적한다. 문화는 불편한 싱크레티즘을 통해 작동해왔으며 서구 문화 자체 안에 서구 문화에 대한 저항을 기입하는 내부의 불협화음을 그 안에 담고 있다고 말해진다. 영은 “영국성”이 불확실하다기보다는 덜 고정적이고 덜 안정적인 것, 차이와 타자성에 대한...
