Description: In this thought-provoking collection of essays -- his first book to be published in English -- Achille Mbembe develops and extends debates first ignited by his well-known 1992 article "Provisional Notes on the Postcolony, " in which he developed his notion of the "banality of power" in contemporary Africa. In this book he profoundly renews our understanding of power and subjectivity in Africa as he contests die-hard Africanist and nativist perspectives as well as some of the key assumptions of postcolonial theory.
