"In the controversy raging in many countries about 'decolonial' thought, this book by the young philosopher Norman Ajari will not go unnoticed. Its ambition, richness, and militant passion will give others the means to learn more about this new paradigm and to take stock of its internal diversity."Etienne Balibar
