Oriental & Indian philosophy; Social & political philosophy; Political science & theory

By bringing together philosophers whose work on political philosophy, intellectual history, and world philosophies pushes the boundaries of conventional scholarship, this collaborative collection opens up space in political philosophy for new approaches.

Garrick Cooper, Sudipta Kaviraj, Charles W. Mills, and Sor-hoon Tan respond

to the challenges James Tully raises for comparative political thought.

Arranged around Tully’s opening chapter, they demonstrate the value of critical dialogue and point to the different attempts cultures make to understand their experiences. Through the use of methods from various disciplines and cultural contexts, each interlocutor exemplifies the transformative power of genuine democratic dialogue across philosophical traditions. Together they call for a radical reorientation of conceptual and intellectual readings from intellectual history including the Afro-modern political tradition, Indigenous philosophies, and the lived experiences of societies in Asia.

This is an urgent methodological provocation for anyone interested in the ethical, conceptual, and political challenges of political thought today.

Reviews for Dialogue and Decolonization: Historical, Philosophical, and Political Perspectives

Philosophical” discussions of disorderings of peoples and polities through racialized, exploitative projects of European and Euro-American “Modernity” toward visions for emancipatory reorderings must first emancipate comparative philosophizings for dialogues involving transformative listening, and more. Dialogue and Decolonization is a primer for this difficult, necessary work. * Lucius T. Outlaw, Professor of Philosophy, Emeritus and W. Alton Jones Chair, Emeritus Vanderbilt University, USA *
