About this product

Product Information

A significant contribution to the emerging literature on decolonial studies, this concise and forcefully argued volume lays out a groundbreaking interpretation of the "Mandela phenomenon." Contrary to a neoliberal social model that privileges adversarial criminal justice and a rationalistic approach to war making, Sabelo J. Ndlovu-Gatsheni identifies transformative political justice and a reimagined social order as key features of Nelson Mandela's legacy. Mandela is understood here as an exemplar of decolonial humanism, one who embodied the idea of survivor's justice and held up reconciliation and racial harmony as essential for transcending colonial modes of thought.

Reviews
"This is a completely original contribution to our understanding of Mandela. It provides a long overdue decolonial perspective that situates Mandela's life and thought within current academic debates and the political and ethical challenges facing global humanity. It will be essential reading across multiple disciplines." · Ramon Grosfoguel, University of California, Berkeley "This political-philosophical essay is a profound reflection on the socialization, thought, and impact of an individual who represented an anti-colonial determination to achieve human dignity for all people. It is inspiring reading." · Henning Melber, Dag Hammarskjold Foundation and Nordic Africa Institute, "This is a completely original contribution to our understanding of Mandela. It provides a long overdue decolonial perspective that situates Mandela's life and thought within current academic debates and the political and ethical challenges facing global humanity.

It is inspiring reading." Henning Melber, Dag Hammarskjld Foundation and Nordic Africa Institute, "Ndlovu-Gatsheni's academic goal is not to impose any fixed, essentialized, or totalizing readings or metanarratives of the idea of Mandela. As such, The Decolonial Mandela is not only a tour de force that shows how the selfless actions of one man can help define the course of history, but also provides important insights for scholars into the dynamics of imperial reason in Africa." * Biography "This book is effective in providing different ways of viewing Nelson Mandela and his work that humanize him without either tarnishing or overstating his legacy. The author provides a convincing argument for placing Mandela at the helm of a Third Humanist Revolution though arguably this revolution has yet to reach fruition." · African Studies Quarterly "Ndlovu-Gatsheni's esay offers fresh intellectual perspectives that go far beyond the essay's original topic...[It] is not only an extremely convincing call for encounters in inter- and trans-, or better, post-disciplinarity within and between the Global North and the Global South, but also an important intervention in current South African debates around identities and interests." · Africa Spectrum "This is a completely original contribution to our understanding of Mandela.
