Chakrabarty took from Marx’s Grundrisse the history posited by capital (‘History 1’) and set against it pasts not belonging to capital’s life-process (‘History 2’) (Provincializing Europe, 2000). D. Chakrabarty, Provincializing Europe (2000); K. Marx, Grundrisse (1857–58; publ. 1939–41)

In Provincializing Europe (2000) Chakrabarty paired Marx’s abstract categories with Heidegger’s thinking of belonging and being-in-the-world to write histories of life-worlds not subsumed by capital. D. Chakrabarty, Provincializing Europe: Postcolonial Thought and Historical Difference (2000)

मत
“Provincializing Europe” asks how to write the history of places like India with concepts – the state, citizenship, capital, progress – that were developed in Europe and claim universal validity. Such concepts, Chakrabarty argues, are “indispensable and inadequate”: indispensable because modern politics everywhere is conducted in their terms, inadequate because they present non-European histories as stories of lack, of a “not yet”, a waiting room of history. Provincialising Europe does not mean rejecting European thought but showing its limits. He pairs Marx, the thinker of abstract universal categories, with Heidegger, the thinker of belonging and lived worlds, and distinguishes the universal history posited by capital (“History 1”) from the many pasts that do not serve its logic (“History 2”). His essay “The Climate of History: Four Theses” turned to climate change, which collapses the old distinction between natural and human history: humans have become a geological force, and historians must now think of humanity also as a species and of the planet as a frame not centred on humans – alongside, not instead of, the history of capitalism and global inequality.
