Other Asias

Autor GC Spivak
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2 dec 2007
In this major intervention into the "Asian Century," Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak challenges the reader to re-think Asia, in its political and cultural complexity, in the global South and in the metropole.

Among the chapters in this volume are:


  • "Foucault and Najibullah," in which she looks at Afghanistan in its own historical and gendered narrative
  • "Moving Devi," in which she addresses the authority of autobiography and writes as a diasporic
  • "Responsibility," in which she examines the limits of "theory" upon the floodplains of Bangladesh
  • "Megacity," where she reads cyberliteracy in Bangalore.

Other chapters focus on, among other things, Human Rights, and the turbulent "present" of the Caucasus.
