Subject: Re: Post-postcolonial theory


I have trouble with the concern for "application" of poco theory. I am not
an activist but I was one in my youth and most discussion of the ins and
outs of political philosophy seemed to me quite pointless in that context.
Those discussions made me decide where to stand but they told me little
about what to do from where I was standing. As an activist I was much more
concerned as to what should be done and how to do it.
