Autodeterminação e liberdade: sobre as ferramentas de emancipação dos povos negros da dominação colonial

Abstract

This paper discusses the colonial domination forms performed mainly by European continet over Africa. In the introduction, we follow some of the main coercive strategies that colonial capitalist imperialism exerted on Africa and also on Europe. Thus, the subordinate position of the natives was installed as much in the mentality of those Europeans who were not in Africa as in the minds of the Africans themselves, even if not by the same ways. In the second chapter, we follow the reflection of an indian philosopher Spivak regarding colonialism and the instrument of destituting the identity of the subordinate subject, ending up becoming an “Other of Other”. In the final chapter we deal with the forms of emancipation of black peoples in relation to the project of identity annihilation projected by colonial capitalist imperialism.
