Abstract: | In his discussion of the issues associated with ideology, Fanon focuses on two main areas, race and national culture, viz. the role of racism in the structuring of colonial social relations, and the debasement of national culture and history which is the other half of the ideology of domination that accompanies colonialism. Fanon's answer to the problems these engender can ultimately be found in a revolutionary humanism that he shares with other theorists of the Third World. Notes. |
