Frantz Fanon and the Future of Cultural Politics : Finding Something Different

This book examines how the work of a revolutionary writer such as Frantz Fanon might be best appropriated for contemporary political and cultural issues. Reviewing the field of “Fanon studies” and bringing Fanon into conversation with such figures as Edward Said, Michel Foucault, Jamaica Kincaid, and Paul Gilroy, as well as with the contemporary struggles of the Arab Spring, this book will be of interest to scholars and students across a wide range of disciplines.
