This reflective book proposes a transversal vision of the affirmation of a global Afro-Asian South through the anti-colonial resistance and war diplomacy of
Algerians in
Asia and
Japan, bringing together history, politics, political philosophy. Written in a singularly fascinating way, by a mix-paste of several levels of writing—textual elements (Seloua Luste Boulbina's text, quotations, fragments of articles, samples of books), press and visual (books covers, photos, drawings, archives, documents...)—, it constitutes also a true poetic document.
Seloua Luste Boulbina is a French-Algerian
philosopher and political scientist, former program director at the Collège International de philosophie, and researcher at the Université Paris Diderot. A theorist of
decolonialization, she works on colonial and postcolonial issues in their political, intellectual, epistemological, cultural and artistic dimensions.
