Artikel ini mengkaji tentang usaha untuk mengontekstualisasikan teori-teori pasca kolonial ke dalam fenomena Bali kontemporer. Meskipun Bali tidak lagi berada di dalam era penjajahan, namun warisan kebudayaan mental masih dapat disaksikan di dalam praktik kebudayaan, yang kemudian dikomodifikasi untuk kepentingan industri pariwisata. Pada titik ini, kajian pasca kolonial yang dirintis oleh Gayatri Spivak, Edward Said hingga Homi Babha bisa dipakai sebagai pisau bedah untuk melihat sejauh mana jejak superioritas penjajah terhadap inferioritas terjajah pada konteks Bali kontemporer. Di dalam struktur masyarakat Bali kontemporer yang terbentuk aibat persinggungan dengan globalisasi yakni kelas menegah, turut  mengadopsi perspektif eksotis kolonialistik untuk meromantisir kebudayaan Bali demi kepentingan ekonomi-politik neo-liberal yang difasilitasi oleh pariwisata budaya.

O artigo propõe, em primeiro lugar, uma revisão teórica da Antropologia, avaliando seu lugar no rol das teorias atuais das Ciências Humanas. Para tanto, constrói a metáfora das metamorfoses do olhar etnográfico, o que permite detectar momentos importantes da recepção e reprodução, em países periféricos como o Brasil, desse saber plasmado nos países centrais nos dias do colonialismo. Em seguida passa em revista as idéias de teóricos do pensamento pós-colonial e dos estudos subalternos, como Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak e Homi Bhabha. Num terceiro momento, discute as possibilidades de uma etnografia pós-colonial, voltada para a narração das vozes subalternas, o que aproxima a Antropologia da Literatura Comparada. Finalmente, ilustra essas discussões com a apresentação de uma narrativa extraordinária de uma quebradeira de côco de babaçu do Maranhão, texto que erijo como emblemático da condição contemporânea de desenraizamento e perplexidade a que estamos submetidos, tanto os nossos supostos nativos como os etnógrafos e intelectuais dos países periféricos.

Theoretical Paradigms

Some of the main genealogies within postcolonial scholarship are discussed, with a focus on key thinkers, such as Edward Said, Homi Bhabha, Gayatri Spivak, Aníbal Quijano, and Walter Mignolo. Key concepts, such as colonial discourse theory, development, and subaltern studies are presented. The discussion of postcolonial thought is embedded in a reflection on its relation to other theoretical paradigms and social theories (e.g., poststructuralism, world-system theory, Marxism). This focus seeks to highlight some of the main contours of the field, while also pointing out the ways postcolonialism has shaped the discipline of international relations (IR).

Gayatri Spivak

In the last decade or so, Victorian studies – the only major literary field identified with a British ruler – has begun a slow but inexorable shift away from its traditional nation-based parameters. A cursory glance through the book review section of prominent Victorianist journals reveals that approximately half of new books reviewed treat subjects that extend beyond Britain and British literature: Ireland, India, slavery, settler literature, Continental literature, and global technological and media networks are all examples. While this development reflects broader trends in the discipline, in the humanities, and in public discourse as a whole, arguments about the desirability of expanding the scope of Victorian studies have turned largely on the particular inaptness of the national frame for the Victorian period. Since the 1980s, postcolonial critics such as Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak, and Gauri Viswanathan have argued for the significance of Britain's vast empire to its literature and the very existence of a British literary canon, as well as to literature produced in the colonies. More recently, Victorianists such as Margaret Cohen and Carolyn Dever, Amanda Claybaugh, Caroline Levine, Sharon Marcus, and Julia Sun-Joo Lee have stressed other transnational contexts for Victorian literature, noting that Victorian writers themselves were polylingual and comparative in their understanding of both literature and culture and that “even in its heyday, print culture was international and the nation was a relative, hybrid, comparative category” (Marcus 682).

The Mind

O presente artigo consiste em uma contribuição teórica nos campos dos estudos da tradução, estudos pós coloniais e literaturas africanas. Toma por base o início do romance The River between, do escritor queniano Ngugi Wa T’hiongo, e algumas considerações feitas por estudiosos como Edward Said e Conceição Lima, propondo uma forma de pensar as relações entre línguas nativas africanas e as línguas das metrópoles imperiais nas literaturas africanas que problematize a celebração dos hibridismos diaspóricos. Para tal, recorre aos ensaios Decolonising the Mind, também de autoria de T’hiongo, e “Tradução e Cultura”, de Gayatri Spivak, no sentido de elaborar a imagem do “Rio tradução”, isto é, um lugar de encontros, trânsitos e deslocamentos, mas também de “sobrevida”, ou fortleben, para usar o termo de Walter Benjamim.

European Modernism

The essay takes up the issue of postcolonial representation in terms of a critique of European modernism that has been symptomatic of much postcolonial theoretical debates in the recent years. It tries to enumerate the epistemic changes within the paradigm of postcolonial theoretical writing that began tentatively with the publication of Edward Said’s Orientalism in 1978 and has taken a curious postmodern turn in recent years with the writings of Gayatri Spivak and Homi Bhabha. The essay primarily focuses on Bhabha’s concepts of ambivalence and mimicry and his politics of theoretical anarchism that take the representation debate to a newer height vis-ŕ-vis modes of religious nationalism and Freudian psychoanalysis. It is interesting to see how Bhabha locates these within a postmodern paradigm.

Historical Developments

One of the most outstanding historical developments of the twentieth century was the gaining of national independence from imperial rule by most of the formerly colonized countries, especially in Africa, Asia and the Pacific. Yet, rather surprisingly, many of the leading contributors to postcolonial theory, including Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak, Homi Bhabha and others, tend to minimize the significance of national independence and take a dim view of the nationalist movements, leaders and ideologies that struggled for it. The aim of this article is to probe the reasons for this, canvassing postcolonial theorists’ main arguments and outlining certain intellectual currents and commitments, notably poststructuralism, deconstruction and postmodernism, that have contributed to these negative stances. Some counterarguments are presented, as it is suggested that the achievements of nationalist revolutions in the former colonies should be reassessed more favourably. This could be a way of resisting the current hegemonic power of the ideology of globalization.
