Frantz Fanon, born in Martinique in 1925, died in Washington in 1961, psychiatrist and anti-colonialist activist, left a body of work which, half a century later, retains an astonishing topicality and enjoys increasing influence throughout the world. Head doctor at the psychiatric hospital of Blida (Algeria) from 1953, he was confronted with the effects of the situation of "systematized dehumanization" of which the "natives" were victims. This led him very quickly to join the fight of the National Liberation Front which in November 1954 initiated the "war of liberation" of Algeria. Two years later, he resigned from his post and joined the FLN in Tunis, where he collaborated with the newspaper El Moudjahid , before being carried away, on December 6, 1961, by leukemia at the age of thirty-six.
Its dazzling trajectory is marked by the publication of three major books: Black Skin, White Masks (Seuil, 1952), Year V of the Algerian Revolution (Maspero, 1959), The Wretched of the Earth (Maspero, 1961). And in 1964, François Maspero published a collection of some of his political texts, under the title For the African Revolution . It is these four works that this volume brings together, supplemented by a preface by the historian Achille Mbembe and an introduction by the philosopher Magali Bessone.
