Frantz Fanon was one of the twentieth century\u2019s most important theorists of revolution, colonialism, and racial difference, and this, his masterwork, is a classic alongside\u00a0Orientalism<\/i>\u00a0and\u00a0The Autobiography of Malcolm X<\/i>.
\nThe Wretched of the Earth<\/i>\u00a0is a brilliant analysis of the psychology of the colonized and their path to liberation. Bearing singular insight into the rage of colonized peoples and the role of violence in historical change, the book also incisively attacks postindependence disenfranchisement of the masses by the elite on one hand, and intertribal and interfaith animosities on the other. A veritable handbook of social reorganization for leaders of emerging nations,\u00a0The Wretched of the Earth<\/i>\u00a0has had a major impact on civil rights, anticolonialism, and black-consciousness movements around the world. This new translation updates its language for a new generation of readers and its lessons are more vital now than ever.
