A collection of incisive critiques of contemporary Marxism, of post-colonial development and of the Eurocentric assessment of imperialism
Ambalavaner Sivanandan was Director of the Institute of Race Relations in London, Editor of the journal Race and Class and author of A Different Hunger.
You can agree or not agree with Sivanandan (I agree nearly all the

he writes. It has the warmth of the passion of those who know they
will never live to wield power, and the clarity of a demand for
justice that cannot be silenced. His is a voice that relays the
voices of the poor, the salt of the earth and the proud. The colour
of his voice cannot be dismissed. Its unique tone carries a
reminder of what wealth inevitably loses, of what power based upon
injustice fears. Read, listen ...
