Contents:

Part I. The coloniality of the present. The coloniality of citizenship in the contemporary anglophone Caribbean -- Creole discourse and racism in the Caribbean -- Part II. The Caribbean beyond. A Jamesian poiesis? C.L.R. James's new society and Caribbean freedom -- The Caribbean beyond: Sylvia Wynter's Black experience of New World coloniality and the human after Western man -- Conclusion: a Caribbean sympathy.

Subject: Beyond Coloniality is an extended meditation on Caribbean thought and freedom at the beginning of the 21st century and a profound rejection of the postindependence social and political organization of the Anglophone Caribbean and its contentment with neocolonial arrangements of power. Aaron Kamugisha provides a dazzling reading of two towering figures of the Caribbean intellectual tradition: C.L.R. James and Sylvia Wynter, and their quest for human freedom beyond coloniality. Ultimately, he urges the Caribbean to recall and reconsider the radicalism of its most distinguished 20th-century thinkers in order to imagine a future beyond neocolonialism.
