Through a variety of media, including novels, graphic narratives, and curatorial discourse, this book explores four key contexts at the intersection of care and colonialism: care-focused gender roles, domestic service, nurturing human life and environments, and curation as caring. \u003ci\u003eDecolonial Care\u003c\/i\u003e argues that to imagine caregiving in the context of the French Caribbean means reckoning with intrinsically uncaring practices inherited from colonial rule that show disregard for human life and environments. Putting in dialogue postcolonial studies and care studies, this book elucidates how caring and uncaring have been historically shaped by colonialism, showing how media and narratives about the French Caribbean document the damaging impact of colonialism but also help develop decolonial approaches to care that sustain human life and livable environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rutgers University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47779251060887,"sku":"9781978840454","price":15675.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781978840454.webp?v=1778034743","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/decolonial-care-reimagining-caregiving-in-the-french-caribbean-9781978840454","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
