TY - GEN T1 - Europe and its shadows : coloniality after empire A1 - Dabashi, Hamid, 1951- LA - English PP - London PB - Pluto Press YR - 2019 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/jstor_eba_on1124076035 AB - Europe has long imagined itself as the centre of the universe, although its precise geographical, cultural and social terrains have always been amorphous. Exploring the fear and fascination associated with the continent as an allegory, Hamid Dabashi considers Europe to be a historically formed barricade against the world.0Frantz Fanon's assessment that "Europe is literally the creation of the Third World" is still true today; but in more than one sense for the colonial has always been embedded in the capital, and the capital within the colonial. As the condition of coloniality shifts, so have the dividing lines between coloniser and colonised, and this shift calls for a reappraisal of our understanding of nationalism, xenophobia and sectarianism as the dangerous indices of the emerging worlds.0As the far-right populists captivate minds across Europe and Brexit upsets the balance of power in the European Union, this book, from a major scholar of postcolonial thought, is a timely and transformative intervention OP - 216 CN - JV51 .D33 2019eb SN - 9781786803986 SN - 1786803984 SN - 9781786804006 SN - 178680400X SN - 9781786803993 SN - 1786803992 SN - 0745338402 SN - 9780745338408 SN - 9780745338415 SN - 0745338410 KW - Postcolonialism : Europe.
