Abstract:

The book was written by Epifanio San Juan and published by St. Martin's Press. It consists of essays published over the past several years and which are organized around specific themes. It seeks to situate postcoloniality as "a moment in this worldwide crisis of late imperial culture," and to offer a critical explanation for "postcolonial theory's claim to institutional authority."
