Achille Mbembe
The approach sets out from the presupposition according to which a genuine deconstruction of the world of our time begins with the full recognition of the perforce provincial status of our discourses and the necessarily regional character of our concepts—and therefore with a critique of every form of abstract universalism.
Achille Mbembe, Necropolitics

Casey Fisher, The Subtle Cause
