Amilcar Cabral defines African critical theory as well as radical African politics. This book shows the unfailing engagement and the rigourous thinking a concrete philosopher needs in order to decolonize a society. That's true even in contemporary struggles. This book belongs to the "postcolonial library"--Seloua Luste Boulbina, Research Associate in Philosophy, University of Paris VII

Wood has [...] performed a great service with this translation, not just to those who maintain an interest in African philosophy or Global Theory, but to philosophers, cultural critics, political scientists, and political theorists more generally.--Review 31

Cabral offers rich insight into the role and importance of culture in expanding Marxism to address modern national liberation and identity movements. Cabral is then useful to a broad range of philosophers and activists in critical race theory, politics of identity, transitional justice, and decolonialism. More generally, Resistance and Decolonialization is essential and successful in rendering African critical theory and its rich insights more visible.--Marx and Philosophy Review of Books

This is a very important and timely publication that adds to existing collections of Am�lcar Cabral's revolutionary writings and is therefore a welcome addition to the works of one of the most original African thinkers of national emancipation during the 20th century.--Theory & Event

These essays introduce us to Cabral the trans-disciplinary Africana critical social theorist, who picks up the weapon of theory not only in liberation of the wretched of the earth, but also to eradicate 'the condition of the wretchedness' and 'realise anticolonial revolution, trans-ethnic working-class struggle and revolutionary humanism'.--Leiden Journal of International Law

Resistance and Decolonization is a tour-de-force in the bourgeoning field of Cabral studies and/or the epistemology that can be called Cabralism from the decolonial epistemic perspective. The spectre of Cabral haunts us and the fundamental questions which he raises from the positionality of being dehumanized bring about the unmasking of coloniality in the modern colonial world. Dan Wood's translation, as a decolonial testament, instils that Cabral still lives and another world is possible.--Tendayi Sithole, Author of Steve Biko: Decolonial Meditations of Black Consciousness
