N2  -  Against the lethargy and despair of the contemporary Anglophone Cari bbean experience, Aaron Kamugisha gives a powerful argument for advanci ng Caribbean radical thought as an answer to the conundrums of the pres ent. Beyond Coloniality is an extended meditation on Caribbean thought and freedom at the beginning of the 21st century and a profound rejecti on of the postindependence social and political organization of the Ang lophone Caribbean and its contentment with neocolonial arrangements of power. 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 beyon d neocolonialism
