Decolonising Marx: A Two-Day Conference
In recent times, debates addressing the relations between Marxism and Postcolonial Studies have often been conducted on a win-or-lose basis, as if acknowledging the insights of one required denying the insights of the other, and as if only one of these intellectual traditions could explain the past and transform the present. Taking for granted that all intellectual traditions are provincial and limited, this conference bring together scholars from a number of countries to explore different historical moments when the ideas, concepts and methods associated with Marx engaged with economic, political or intellectual developments outside Western Europe, ranging from Subaltern Studies to Amazonian Perspectivism.
