Description

Explore the complex relationship between authority and the power to represent in Post-Orientalism: Knowledge and Power in a Time of Terror. This work by Hamid Dabashi provides a sustained record of reflections regarding who holds the right to represent others and by what authority they do so. As the United States engaged in military actions in Afghanistan and Iraq, these acts of representation revealed deep-seated claims to moral agency. This book examines these phenomena, building upon the foundations laid by Edward Said's groundbreaking work, Orientalism. By investigating the origins of power and the ability to define others, Dabashi offers a deep look into how knowledge and authority function in contemporary global conflicts. This text is an essential resource for readers interested in world history and the political implications of representation during times of global tension.
