Frantz Fanon on Psychology - Dictionary of Arguments
Brocker I 383 Psychology/Colonialism/Fanon: Fanon describes colonialism as a divided society in which the colonized live in a permanent tension between envy and the experience of rejection. The tension regularly discharges into feuds as a "collective form of substitution".(1) >Colonialism. Brocker I 392 Violence/Fanon: as a consequence of colonial rule, Fanon describes a "psychopathology directly caused by oppression" (2). He also ascribes pathologizing effects to the use of force in the context of colonial wars - and thus to anti-colonial liberation struggles and the state reactions that such struggles evoke. This clearly calls into question his interpretation as an apologist of violence. >Violence. 1. Frantz Fanon, Les damnés de la terre, Paris 1961.
