In The Postcolonial Orient, Vasant Kaiwar presents a far-reaching analysis of the political, economic and ideological cross-currents that have shaped and informed postcolonial studies preceding and following the 1989 moment of world history. Kaiwar mobilises a critical body of classical and contemporary Marxism to demonstrate that far richer understandings of 'Europe' not to mention 'colonialism', 'modernity' and 'difference' are possible than with a postcolonialism captive to phenomenological-existentialism and post-structuralism.
Vasant Kaiwar (Ph.D. UCLA, 1989), Visiting Associate Professor of History, Duke University; founder-editor, South Asia Bulletin and Comparative Studies of South Asia, Africa, and the Middle East; and co-editor, Antinomies of Modernity and From Orientalism to Postcolonialism.
