Since the publication of 'The Wretched of the Earth' in 1961, Fanon's work has been significant for successive generations of intellectuals - for anti-colonial and civil rights activists in the 60s and 70s, for those working in postcolonial studies from the 80s to the present day, and currently for specialists of French and North African history, of colonial psychiatry, and for all those who work with conflicts of identity in postcolonial societies. Frantz Fanon is regarded as a foundational thinker of postcolonial studies, bringing together the analysis of colonialism from an objective, historical perspective and an interrogation of its subjective effects on coloniser and colonised alike. This book furthers his powerful intervention into how we think about identity, race and activism and provides a unique insight into Fanon's literary works and psychiatric, philosophical and historical theories.
