  Hegel and Empire: From Postcolonialism to Globalism

  This book provides a clear and nuanced appraisal of Hegel’s treatment of Africa

  India

  and Islam

  and of the implications of this treatment for postcolonial and global studies. Analyzing Hegel’s master-slave dialectic and his views on Africa

  India

  and Islam

  it situates these views not only within Hegel’s historical scheme but also within a broader European philosophical context and the debates they have provoked within Hegel scholarship. Each chapter explores various in depth readings of Hegel by postcolonial critics

  investigating both the Eurocentric and potentially global nature of his dialectic. Ultimately

  the book shows both where of this profoundly influential thinker archetypally embodies certain Eurocentric traits that have characterized modernity and how

  ironically

  he himself gives us the tools for working towards a more global vision.\n\nOffering a concise introduction not only to an important dimension of Hegel’s thought – his orientation towards “empire” – but also to the various issues raised by postcolonial theory and global studies

  this book will be of use to philosophers as well as advanced students of literary and cultural theory alike.\n\nReview\n“Habib's Hegel and Empire is unique in being both highly ambitious in its far-reaching scope and at the same time painstakingly precise in all its details. I sense that it will soon emerge as a classic in the field.” (Aakash Singh Rathore
