In an age where neoliberal capitalism deepens global inequalities and fractures social cohesion, The Nation Undone: Kenya and the National Question in Neoliberal Africa offers a compelling critique of the continent’s unfulfilled promises of decolonization. With identities politicized and economies tethered to extractive global systems, this groundbreaking book examines how the national question-once central to liberation struggles-has been eclipsed by the rise of identitarian politics.From the ruins of failed state-building projects to the weaponization of ethnicity and religion, the book exposes how neoliberal ideologies have eroded collective struggles for justice, fostering an elite-driven politics of division. Yet, amid the chaos, it also revisits the radical possibilities of pan-African solidarity and class-conscious mobilization, urging a return to the transformative visions of national liberation movements.A timely and incisive work, The Nation Undone speaks to scholars, activists, and citizens grappling with the dual challenges of dismantling imperial legacies and imagining a future beyond the false binaries of identity and capital.
