Fanon and the Problem of Alienation.
Kessous, Naaman
Western Journal of Black Studies, v11 n2 p80-91 Sum 1987
The notion of alienation as presented in the writings of Frantz Fanon needs a theoretical analysis which considers its economic, racial and political aspects. Marx wrote on alienation in a similar way portraying it as a self-fulfilling prophecy which is fraught with violence and dehumanization. (VM)
