"A very complex analysis of culture and its individuals on the postcolonial context. How people develop, how power can be used to transform and anihilate ones culture."
1. People who like pain. 2. People who like elitist, dense, scholarship that arrogantly references a huge array of critical theory without attempting to show where any of this is coming from or what it really means, and then tries to pass itself off as politically efficacious. 3. Graduate students and academics in cultural studies or postcolonial theory.
This makes me wonder... are those in the third category just really those who fit both descriptions one and two? It's possible...
I know that this is now a classic piece of theory... and I know, and believe, that there is valuable content in this book. (For instance, the notion that culture is always hybrid; that 'authentic' culture accurately representing something in the past doesn't exist; and likewise that there is always some lack in culture, which is precisely where productive change can come in.) What I don't know is if it was worth the work it took for me to get at that."
