What is the Post-Colonial theory of Literature?
The most significant contribution made by post-colonial theory to contemporary criticism might very well in the future come to be regarded as the exploration of the silence of race in an international context. The post-colonial theory has enriched considerably our understanding of the functioning of racial categories in colonial as well as post-colonial contexts.
Finally, discussions of post-colonial theory should also recognise the particular structure of intellectual work in the North American academy, which in many ways remains the primary venue of post-colonial theory. The thoroughly commodified nature of this work produces its own dynamic of obsolescence and restless innovation.
If there is something called postcolonial theory, the North American academy ordains, sooner or later, it must be succeeded by something called postcolonial theory. Without gainsaying the validity of the historical and theoretical reasons, reviewed earlier, behind the various desires to move beyond postcolonial theory, this dynamic, too, should be acknowledged in discussions of postcolonial theory."
