He was the author of classic works such as Black Skin, White Masks (1952) and The Wretched of the Earth (1961). He was one of the most significant anti-colonialist, anti-imperialist and anti-racist thinkers of the 20th Century.Jean Khalfa is a Senior Lecturer in French Studies at Trinity College Cambridge, UK.

He has edited and translated several works by Jacques Rancière, including Dissensus (2015) and The Lost Thread (2016).

Fanon’s writings, some of the most intense political writing of the century, reflect the turmoil of his moment and seek a way out through a series of provisional and historically specific solutions … What The Political Writings shows is the range of problems and solutions faced by one of the great leftists of the 20th century.
