The location of culture

Rethinking questions of identity, social agency and national affiliation, Bhabha provides a working, if controversial, theory of cultural hybridity - one that goes far beyond previous attempts by others. In The Location of Culture, he uses concepts such as mimicry, interstice, hybridity, and liminality to argue that cultural production is always most productive where it is most ambivalent. Speaking in a voice that combines intellectual ease with the belief that theory itself can contribute to practical political change, Bhabha has become one of the leading post-colonial theorists of this era.

  • "Le riflessioni di uno tra i maggiori teorici del nostro tempo riunite in una raccolta di saggi caratterizzati dalla vastità di riferimenti letterari e dalla capacità dell'autore di ri-definire la modernità occidentale secondo la prospettiva degli studi postcoloniali. Bhabha elabora una genealogia della postmodernità, partendo dalla constatazione che i testi coloniali e postcoloniali non ci raccontano la storia dello sviluppo ineguale del mondo. Essa va invece riportata alla luce scavando tra le pieghe della storia ufficiale, alla scoperta di quelli che l'autore definisce i veri 'luoghi della cultura'"
