Postcolonial Theory

A critical introduction
Leela Gandhi

In the last decade postcolonial ism has taken its place with theories such as poststructuralism, psychoanalysis and feminism as a major critical discourse in the humanities. As a consequence of its diverse and interdis-ciplinary usage, this body of thought has generated an enormous corpus of specialised academic writing. Nevertheless, although much has been written under its rubric, ‘postcolonial-ism’ itself remains a diffuse and nebulous term. Unlike Marxism or deconstruction, for instance, it seems to lack an ‘originary moment’ or a coherent methodology. This book is an attempt to ‘name’ postcolonialism—to delineate the aca-demic and cultural conditions under which it first emerged and thereby to point to its major preoccupations and areas of concern.
