Frantz Fanon for the 21st Century Volume 3 The Algerian Revolution, Islamic Discourse, the Colonizer and the Discourse of White Supremacy - Frantz Fanon for the 21st Century, #3 - E-book - ePub

This work deconstructs Frantz Fanon's published works on the Algerian Revolution towards interrogating Fanon's discourse of anti-colonial Revolution in a search for insights into the failure of the  Algerian Revolution. What is discovered is Fanon's discourse of Revolution in a state of evolution is trapped in time arising from Fanon's death in 1961. This evolving, unfinished discourse of Fanon was of limited utility in understanding what transpired in Algeria with freedom.
But in its penetrating analysis of French colonial domination of Algeria offers insights into the worldview, intent and strategy of the revolutionary elite who grew itself into an oligarchy thereby jacking the Revolution by defanging the masses. Central to this analysis was the power relation between traditional Isam and the Revolutionary elite.
