    Notes:
    192 p., Argues that postcolonial critics must move beyond an identity-based orthodoxy as they examine problems of sovereignty. Harrison describes what she calls "difficult subjects”--subjects that disrupt essentialized notions of identity as equivalent to sovereignty. She argues that these subjects function as a call for postcolonial critics to broaden their critical horizons beyond the usual questions of national identity and exclusion/inclusion.
