Opis

Lewis R. Gordon offers a probing meditation on freedom, justice, and decolonization, asking what there is to be understood and done when the search for justice, which dominates social and political philosophy of the North, is an insufficient approach for the achievements of dignity, freedom, liberation, and revolution?
