Beyond Man by Yountae An

The contributors to Beyond Man reckon with the colonial and racial implications of the philosophy of religion's history by staging a conversation between it and Black, Indigenous, and decolonial studies.
“At this historical moment, along an expansive geography marked by various forms of disregard playing out long-standing modes of violence, this volume goes a long way in helping expose and decipher key structures of powerIn the process and taken as a whole, it provides an intriguing depiction of what philosophy of religion has entailed with respect to these structures, and what it can mean and accomplish when cultural assumptions around categories such as the human are interrogated. I highly recommend it.” - Anthony B. Pinn, Rice University “Beyond Man is an important, unique work. It transforms philosophy of religion by insisting that the field be constitutively informed by religious studies, critical race theories, and decolonial, postcolonial, and Black studies. If our discipline has any future at all, this is it.” - Mary-Jane Rubenstein, author of (Pantheologies: Gods, Worlds, Monsters)
