Abstract

Ashis Nandy and his work are generally unknown for those not familiarized with India. His essay, The Intimate Enemy, encourages readers to reflect on certain values that, even though they most probably considered universal, are a consequence of local constructions, derived from particular experiences. Thus, the Intimate Enemy reevaluates hierarchical power relations determined by colonialism and, particularly, British imperialism during the 19th and 20th centuries. The long-lasting impact of these practices on collective ideology represent a central concern in this piece of writing, which analyzes its repercussions not only over the colonized subjects, but also on the colonizer. This review strives to simplify the most relevant contents and arguments within this book in order to make them more comprehensible for the reader.
