In Our Time: Empire, Politics, Culture - Hardcover

Ahmad's voice is one of the most important in the current critical debate. --A.C. Grayling, Financial Times

In Theory is an erudite and brilliant work - one of the few books in recent years on politics, and literature, which deserves to be taken completely seriously. --The Guardian

The long awaited follow-up to Ahmad's "In Theory", this is a meticulous analysis of the changing face of imperialism. This long-awaited sequel to "In Theory" offers a set of interlocking interventions in the most urgent of contemporary debates in political and cultural theory. Ahmad offers a distinctive new analysis of imperialism in the globalised era as it slides into planetary neoliberalisation and warfare, and historically novel forms of resistance emerge across the globe. Diverse in its thematics and rich in detail, "In Our Time" is bound to generate as much debate as its predecessor.
