In this ambitious work, first published in 1983, Cedric Robinson demonstrates that efforts to understand black people's history of resistance solely through the prism of Marxist theory are incomplete and inaccurate. Marxist analyses tend to presuppose European models of history and experience that downplay the significance of black people and black communities as agents of change and resistance. Black radicalism must be linked to the traditions of Africa and the unique experiences of blacks on western continents, Robinson argues, and any analyses of African American history need to acknowledge this.
To illustrate his argument, Robinson traces the emergence of Marxist ideology in Europe, the resistance by blacks in historically oppressive environments, and the influence of both of these traditions on such important twentieth-century black radical thinkers as W. E. B. Du Bois, C. L. R. James, and Richard Wright.

評分強烈推薦!歐洲種族/民族構建的基礎是地域、文化、語言的不統一,而種族/民族的根源比階級構建要深遠得多(這裏Robinson沒提的是Sylvia Wynter提到的Christians vs. non-Christians的區分),所以“階級意識”某種意義上是個非現實的神話;另,非洲也是有自己的宇宙觀世界觀的,販奴曆史之前歐洲對非洲的依賴是歐洲文明一定要抹殺的記憶,類似非洲的他者還有伊斯蘭。這本書配上Wynter and Federici是我分析American Gods的analytical framework.
