Homi Bhabha: An Introduction and Critique, Volume 2: Colonialism and Inbetweenness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780244857974)

Homi Bhabha: An Introduction and Critique is a pathbreaking three-volume study of the postolonial scholar's work. McLaverty-Robinson translates Bhabha's difficult prose into plain English without losing its meaning. His incisive critique cuts through Bhabha's aura and tests whether his ideas work in practice - empirically or politically. This second volume examines the most influential aspects of Bhabha's work: his theories of colonialism, inbetweenness (or liminality), and marginal minority and migrant experiences. It explores his accounts of Indian history, the idea that migrants have a particularly radical point of view, and the concepts of hybridity, mimicry, difference and diversity. The text is livened up with inset boxes and images, including examinations of colonial history.
