To encourage the incorporation of postmodern perspectives into postcolonial Marxism, the development of Marxist philosophy in the Indian academic context since 1947 is examined. Marxist thought in India was originally economistic, but has been influenced by the country's revolutionary communist movement of the 1960s. The emergence of the Subaltern Studies school of Marxist thought, which, following Antonio Gramsci, criticizes classical Marxism for its insufficient emphasis on the specificity of ideology, is described, & limitations inherent in the structuralist framework of the Subaltern school are analyzed from a postmodern perspective. Three topics are discusssed: (1) the nature of the agrarian mode of production & peasant consciousness; (2) the nature of Indian nationalism in the context of Western hegemony; & (3) the postcolonial subject positions of oppressed populations. 19 References.
