BEYOND COLONIALITY, citizenship and freedom in the Caribbean intellectual tradition

264pp., paperback, First SA Edition, Johannesburg, 2019

First published in USA in 2019.

Aaron Kamugisha argues for advancing Caribbean radical thought in order to imagine a future beyond neocolonialism.

"This much-anticipated book reminds us that decolonization is an unfinished global project, and the richest, most radical thinking on what is required to achieve real freedom for the colonized comes out of the Caribbean. In this luminous meditation on how Sylvia Wynter, C. L. R. James, and their various interlocutors come to understand the modern Caribbean in the world, Kamugisha brings to light the conditions of possibility for the world - a new world in the making. Destined to be a classic." Robin Kelly, author of Freedom, Dreams: the black radical imagination
