        Makes the following observation about the Subaltern Studies Group: "Guha's, Spivak's, and Chakrabarty's willingness to embrace provisional essentialism, class consciousness, and mode-of-production narrative seems old-fashioned, déclassé, a bit out-of-it. In order to remain completely oppositional, they repudiate even post-structuralist orthodoxies that they once espoused."
