Empire, Global Coloniality & African Subjectivity - Softcover

" - Ndlovu-Gatsheni rejects modernist perspectives that present Africa as deficient [and],,, convincingly conveys the richness of African perspectives, arguing that problems are caused by how coloniality misappropriates Africa's wealth. However, [the author] also demonstrates how some demagogical African governments, such as Zimbabwe's ZANU-PF regime, are complicit in plundering the national resources on the pretext of confronting empire. [This book] book is an important addition to historiography that interrogates Africa's current condition. It will be a positive step in the theorization of Africa by African scholars." * Africa Spectrum
