Spivak and the "subordinated other"
the "third world turn" in continental philosophy
pp. 37-62
Abstrakt
This chapter argues for a "Third World Turn" in the Continental philosophy of God and the other by analyzing the Spivakian theory of subalternity (the subordinated other). It explains the Spivakian contentions with the postmodern/poststructural assumptions of the "colonized other" while appropriating it with her other notions of marginality and planetarity. In planetarity and in the notion of "detranscendentalized sacred," she alludes to a de-ontological God and a de-othered subjectivity. ">Learning to learn from the subaltern, as her pedagogy, is discussed in order to envisage a postcolonial deconstructive (non)method for contemporary theology and philosophy.
