Salah M. Hassan
Salah M. Hassan schlägt in seinem Text eine Neubetrachtung des afrikanischen Marxismus vor, mit der er gleichzeitig eine Befreiung Marx', eines für das 20. Jahrhundert einflussreichsten politischen Denkers, vom Eurozentrismus bezweckt. Während der Entkolonisierung und der Befreiungsbewegung in Afrika und anderen Teilen der Dritten Welt in der Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts, die mit den Anfängen der documenta zusammenfielen, wurde die Ideologie des Marxismus zur intellektuellen Leitkultur.
