Mongo Beti, Théoricien De La Décolonialité, Adama Samaké

Présence Francophone: Revue internationale de langue et de littérature

Decoloniality is a concept coined by Walter Mignolo to fight against the invasion of the euro-American imaginary in the rest of the world that Anibal Quijano calls coloniality.
