Couze Venn is Reader in Cultural Studies at the `Theory, Culture and Society Centre', Nottingham Trent University

Drawing on the work of Derrida, Foucault, Levinas and Ricouer, this book proposes that the question of postmodernity is inseparable from that of postcolonialism. It maps out a new geneaology of the birth of the modern and suggests a new way of grounding the idea of an emancipation of being.
