Beskrivning

This groundbreaking edited collection brings together diverse global perspectives to examine struggles against liberalisms through decolonial, postcolonial, Indigenous, feminist, queer, and intersectional lenses. Prioritising grassroots experiences and subaltern voices, contributors from around the world explore three critical dimensions: resistance to liberal violence, the agency of those engaged in struggle and the complex challenges of transcending colonial legacies. Through rich case studies spanning continents, the volume reveals both commonalities and differences in experiences of contestation and resistance. It offers fresh insights into identity, recognition and difference in contemporary world politics while amplifying voices often marginalised in academic discourse.

Recensioner i media

"This collection of essays marks a vital intervention in the expanding conversation on the pluriverse, bringing together voices that span from early contributors to the most recent and provocative interventions. In contrast to its increasingly depoliticised deployment, this book reclaims the pluriverse as a deeply political and normative project, reinserting its emancipatory potential into global conversations. This is an important reading for IR scholars and decolonial theorists: it challenges us to rethink the terms of global coexistence, justice and world-making." Camilo Ardila, Associate Lecturer, School of International Relations, University of St Andrews.
