These fourteen critical essays examine both the role of science fiction in the third world and the role of the third world in science fiction. Topics covered include science fiction in Bengal, the genre's portrayal of Native Americans, Mexican cyberpunk fiction, and the undercurrents of colonialism and Empire in traditional science fiction. The intersections of science fiction theory and postcolonial theory are explored, as well as science fiction's contesting of imperialism and how the third world uses the genre to recreate itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Instructors considering this book for use in a course may request an examination copy here.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ericka Hoagland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0786447893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780786447893\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McFarland \u0026amp; Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/07\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 231\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.60d","brand":"Ericka Hoagland","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947141923071,"sku":"9780786447893","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_cef7bea6-cd0a-427d-aef6-66faa0a2e17f.jpg?v=1681516966","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/science-fiction-imperialism-and-the-ericka-hoagland-9780786447893","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
