Maggiori informazioni sul libro
This volume presents critical perspectives from feminists, critical race theorists, and queer and postcolonial theorists who challenge the adoption of European norms in the postcolonial context. It questions whether these norms empower disenfranchised communities or reinforce domination and exploitation. The text explores how postcolonial interventions reshape the study of politics and society in both the postcolony and Euro-America, examining the power dynamics between them. By challenging traditional views of international politics, the volume expands the boundaries of social sciences, engaging with alternative critical approaches and addressing overlooked aspects of international relations. The fourteen contributions focus on the silencing of vulnerable groups regarding freedom, equality, and rights, while showcasing postcolonial-queer-feminist struggles for transnational justice and decolonization. These analyses cover various political and social topics, including global governance, neo-colonialism, resistance movements, and body politics. By incorporating insights from other disciplines, this work enriches the fields of political science and international relations. It primarily targets academics, students, political activists, and policymakers interested in globalization, postcolonial theory, gender studies, and social justice.
