With power and anger, Fanon makes clear the economic and psychological degradation inflicted by imperialism. It was Fanon, himself a psychotherapist, who exposed the connection between colonial war and mental disease, who showed how the fight for freedom must be combined with building a national culture, and who showed the way ahead, through revolutionary violence, to socialism.'In clear language, in words that can only have been written in the cool heat of rage, he showed us the internal theatre of racism' Deborah LevyCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: Penguin Modern ClassicsRelease Year: 2001 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
