What is The Intimate Enemy: Loss and Recovery of Self Under Colonialism (Oxford India Paperbacks) about?
<p>"Defying conventional studies of colonial domination, this enduring work emphasizes the importance of visions in fighting oppression and the cultural resources that keep such visions open and plural. Colonialism, it argues, damaged both colonized and colonizing societies, and Indian anti-imperialism found in Gandhi's counter-modernity a new language of dissent built on the lifestyle, values, and psychology of everyday life in India and on dissenting Western voices." First published in 1983 and in print for over twenty-five years, this edition of the classic work is being published with a new postscript by the author. It will appeal to general readers and students and scholars of sociology, history, politics, psychology, and cultural studies.</p> <p>"Provocative, utterly absorbing."--Journal of Asian Studies. </p>
