Wyklęty lud ziemi

Wprowadzenie

Fanon dictated the book in a few months in 1961, already suffering from leukaemia; it appeared in Paris that autumn, was soon seized by the police, and he died in December. Written during the Algerian war, it analyses decolonisation in four chapters, from violence through the “pitfalls of national consciousness” – the danger that a national bourgeoisie simply replaces the colonisers – to national culture. A fifth chapter presents case studies of mental disorders among Algerians and French people caused by the colonial war, and a short conclusion calls for leaving the European model behind. Sartre’s preface sharpened the passages on violence; Hannah Arendt criticised it more than Fanon in On Violence (1970). The book was widely read in anticolonial movements.
