'A passionate and erudite reflection on the aftermath of Europe. Demonstrating the limits of the frequent, yet reactionary, defenses of Europe from left and right, Dabashi invites us to consider the geographies of imagination, thought, and praxis that appear behind the shadows of capitalism and coloniality. A crucial text to advance post- and decolonial thinking across the Global South' -- Nelson Maldonado-Torres, author of 'Against War: Views from the Underside of Modernity' 'Where 'Discourse on Colonialism' denounces what is perpetrated in the name of Europe, this book raises a more radical question: What is the name 'Europe'?' -- Souleymane Bachir Diagne, author of 'Postcolonial Bergson'

'Cesaire's 'Discourse on Colonialism' denounces what is perpetrated in the name of Europe. 'Coloniality after Empire' raises a more radical question: What is the name Europe ?' -- Souleymane Bachir Diagne, author of 'Postcolonial Bergson'
