Descripción
Sumario:C.L.R. James in Imperial Britain chronicles the life and work of the Trinidadian intellectual and cultural theorist C.L.R. James during his first extended stay in Britain, from 1932 to 1938. It reveals the radicalizing effect of this critical period on James's intellectual and political trajectory. During this time, James turned to revolutionary socialism and militant Pan-Africanism. Rejecting the 'imperial Britishness' he had absorbed growing up in a Crown Colony in the British West Indies, he emerged as a leading anticolonial activist.
