This book develops a critical intervention in the politics of time of anticolonial aesthetics. The chapters argue that anticolonialism should not be bounded to a specific historical moment; rather, it should be seen as a fertile, radical tradition going beyond the specific event of decolonization and informing utopian and radical futures.
