In spite of Derrida’s timely Specters of Marx and of the critical activity that it generated, as well as Stéphane Courtois’s The Black Book of Communism, the responses to which responses varied from highly enthusiastic support to bitter criticism, out of all the many post’somethings, post(-)communism1 as such has not received the theoretical attention it should have otherwise deserved. The editors of this issue attempt to fill this gap, by proposing a rapprochement between post(-)communism and post(-)colonialism, yet not without expressing some doubts and reflections as to the legitimacy of this parallel.
