Reviews

It is not frequent to read, in the social sciences, expressions such as The meanings of Bandung and Sensing Bandung, as this excellent volume unapologetically does. The Bandung Conference is the equivalent to the French Revolution for the history of Europe. Bandung was a signpost and will remains so for the growing presence in the planetary scene of people, states and regions, shattered by the consolidation of Eurocentrism to which the French Revolution contributed so much. -- Walter D. Mignolo, William H. Wannamaker Professor and Director, Center for Global Studies and the Humanities

It is not frequent to read, in the social sciences, expressions such as The meanings of Bandung and Sensing Bandung, as this excellent volume unapologetically does. The Bandung Conference is the equivalent to the French Revolution for the history of Europe. Bandung was a signpost and will remains so for the growing presence in the planetary scene of people, states and regions, shattered by the consolidation of Eurocentrism to which the French Revolution contributed so much. -- Walter D. Mignolo, William H. Wannamaker Professor and Director, Center for Global Studies and the Humanities Sixty years ago, the Bandung Conference seemed to open up the possibility of a new world of racial equality and global justice. But as this valuable collection makes clear, the event also had even more far-reaching aspirations. Bandung offered a revolutionary decolonial revisioning of the affective sensibilities, dominant temporalities, and official corporealities of the planetary body politic. It is a vision we urgently need to recover. -- Charles W. Mills, Professor, CUNY Graduate Center This pioneering volume retrieves Bandung's entangled histories. By combining work on the intimate solidarities that sustained the conference along with chapters on the importance of Bandung for narrating conspicuously global histories, Meanings of Bandung represents a major advance. The book will be of significant interest to those working on colonial and post-colonial histories, the politics of development, and the terrain of 'lived' international relations. -- George Lawson, Associate Professor, London School of Economics
