The Black Radical Tradition and the Liberation of the Global South<\/h2>\n<p>(Prometeo, 2024)<\/p>\n<p>Unfairly forgotten today, George Padmore was a very well-known intellectual and political figure during his lifetime. From 1930 to 19934 he was the leader International Trade Union Committee of Negro Workers of the III International, and after breaking with the USSR he was one of the most prominent theorists and builders of Pan-Africanism, black Marxism and anti-colonialism. He shared militancy with C.L.R James, Amy Ashwood Garvey, Jomo Kenyatta, W.E.B Du Bois, Nehru, Ho Chi Minh, Nasser and was the mentor of anticolonial leaders from the Caribbean, Africa and Asia. Likewise, with Kwame Nkrumah he achieved Ghana\u00b4s independence and promoted the freedom and unity of Africa. For this reason he was recognized as \u201cThe Father of African Emancipation\u201d. With the pen as a weapon, he wrote numerous groundbreaking books with which he challenged the colonial and racist pillars of capitalism and promoted the liberation of colonized peoples. On a planet still marked by the specters of coloniality, this books pretends to recover his figure and his legacy, to rethink the world critically from the perspective of the Global South.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Juan Francisco Mart\u00ednez Peria<\/strong> received his Ph.D in History from the Universidad Pompeu Fabra, and is now Professor of Latin American History at the Universidad de Buenos Aires, at the Universidad Nacional de San Mart\u00edn and at the Universidad Nacional Madres de Plaza de Mayo.
