"In his reflections on decolonization and post-development, Gustavo Esteva forged
a unique synthesis of critical theory and political economy. This book presents more
than half a century of "reflection in action" in the form of essays, books, and interventions
in national and international forums and newspaper articles-most published here for
the very first time. It showcases Esteva's evolving thought on economic theory, social
change, revolutionary subjectivity, transition, development, the challenges of a new
era and personal and communal autonomy, all associated with the challenges and advances
in the construction of a new society. Through this translation, Esteva's writings
engage with many of the important cultural and political debates of the present day
and retains its power both to provoke and move the reader. Readers will see a thinker
at work, formulating local, grassroots alternatives as they are emerging in Mexico
and Latin America, with a keen sensibility to what happens in other regions of the
world. Gustavo Esteva: A Critique of Development and Other Essays offers a lucid insight
into the climatic and socio-political collapses we face and will be of interest to
students and scholars of critical theory, post-colonial and de-colonial studies, and
post-development studies"
