Abstract

Abstract:In this response I challenge the neglect of postcolonial theory in Laura Grillo's An Intimate Rebuke: Female Genital Power in Ritual and Politics in Côte d'Ivoire and argue instead for its inclusion as a resource for immanent critique. I argue that Grillo's text enhances and enriches the way we may think about time and politics in the postcolonial moment, but that it may in turn also be revitalised and strengthened by speaking with and to postcolonial thought, adding it to the lexicon and strategies of displacement Grillo identifies in practices of female genital power and the matri-archive they reference.

在时间的边缘:亲密谴责中的后殖民时间性

摘要：在这篇回应中，我挑战了劳拉·格里洛的《亲密的反驳：科特迪瓦仪式和政治中的女性生殖器权力》中对后殖民理论的忽视，并主张将其作为内在批判的资源。我认为，格里洛的文本增强并丰富了我们在后殖民时代思考时间和政治的方式，但反过来，它也可能通过与后殖民思想对话而得到振兴和加强，并将其添加到格里洛在女性生殖器权力实践中确定的替代词汇和策略中，以及他们所引用的母系档案中。
