| Sumario: | "Decolonial Judaism: Triumphal Failures of Barbaric Thinking" explores the relationship among geopolitics, religion and social theory. It argues that during the postcolonial and post-Holocaust era, Jewish thinkers in different parts of the world were influenced by Global South thought and mobilized this rich set of intellectual resources to confront the assimilation of normative Judaism by various incipient neo-colonial powers.
