It became the benchmark for atrocity and, in the Western imagination, the paradigmatic genocide. But outside of the West, Pankaj Mishra argues, the dominant story of the twentieth century is that of decolonization. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAt a moment when the world's balance of power is shifting, and the Global North no longer commands ultimate authority, it is critically important that we understand how and why the two halves of the world are failing to talk to each other. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs old touchstones and landmarks crumble, only a new history with a sharply different emphasis can reorient us. In this concise, powerful, and pointed treatise, Mishra reckons with the fundamental questions posed by the devastation in Gaza--about whether some lives matter more than others, how identity is constructed, and what the role of the nation-state ought to be. \u003ci\u003eThe World After Gaza \u003c\/i\u003eis an indispensable moral guide to our past, present, and future.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePankaj Mishra\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eAge of Anger: A History of the Present\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFrom the Ruins of Empire: The Intellectuals Who Remade Asia, \u003c\/i\u003e and several other books of nonfiction and fiction.
