"It’s been a bad decade for politics, but a great decade for
political theory. Three standouts for me were Shatema Threadcraft’s
Intimate Justice, Adom Getachew’s Worldmaking after Empire, and
Kathi Weeks’s The Problem With Work."---Amia Srinivasan, The
Chronicle of Higher Education
"[A] marvellous book . . . tracing a new narrative of the nature
and significance of anti-colonial thought and politics over the
middle decades of the 20th century. Challenging the standard view
of decolonisation as a moment of European-style nationbuilding,
Getatchew offers instead an account of anti-colonial theory and
practice as "worldmaking"."---Jonathan Egid, New Humanist
"A compelling look at how Black internationalist thought evolved
throughout the postcolonial period and how its successes and
failures . . . continue to shape global politics today."---Jennifer
Williams, Foreign Policy
