The valences of the ?post? in postcolonialism are unfolded via some key historical-political postcolonial texts showing, inter alia, that they are replete with elements of Romantic Orientalism and the Oriental Renaissance. Kaiwar mobilises a critical body of classical and contemporary Marxism to demonstrate that far richer understandings of ?Europe? not to mention ?colonialism?, ?modernity? and ?difference? are possible than with a postcolonialism captive to phenomenological-existentialism and post-structuralism, concluding that a narrative so enriched is indispensable for a transformative non-Eurocentric internationalism. 410 0$aHistorical materialism book series ;$vVolume 68. 606 $aOrientalism$xHistoriography 606 $aPostcolonialism$zAsia$xHistoriography 606 $aPostcolonialism$zIndia$xHistoriography 606 $aPostcolonialism$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 606 $aDifference (Philosophy)$xPolitical aspects 606 $aWorld politics$y1989- 607 $aAsia$xRelations$zEurope 607 $aEurope$xRelations$zIndia 607 $aIndia$xRelations$zEurope 607 $aEurope$xRelations$zAsia 615 0$aOrientalism$xHistoriography. 615 0$aPostcolonialism$xHistoriography. 615 0$aPostcolonialism$xHistoriography. 615 0$aPostcolonialism$xStudy and teaching (Higher) 615 0$aDifference (Philosophy)$xPolitical aspects. 615 0$aWorld politics 676 $a325/.30722 700 $aKaiwar$b Vasant$f1950-$01654401 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910821799003321 996 $aThe postcolonial Orient$94006200 997 $aUNINA
