<p><b>Vivek Aslam Chibber</b> (born 1965) is an American academic, social theorist, editor, and professor of sociology at <a href="New_York_University" title="New York University">New York University</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-NYU_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NYU-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> who has published widely on <a href="Social_development_theory" title="Social development theory">development</a>, <a href="Social_theory" title="Social theory">social theory</a>, and politics. Chibber is the author of three books, <i>The Class Matrix: Social Theory after the Cultural Turn</i> (Harvard, 2022), <i><a href="Postcolonial_Theory_and_the_Specter_of_Capital" title="Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital">Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital</a></i> (Verso, 2013) and <i>Locked in Place: State-Building and Late Industrialization in India</i> (Princeton, 2003).

</p><p>In 2017, Chibber launched <i>Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy</i>, with <a href="Robert_Brenner" title="Robert Brenner">Robert Brenner</a>, published by <i><a href="Jacobin_(magazine)" title="Jacobin (magazine)">Jacobin</a></i> magazine.

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Early_life_and_education">Early life and education</h2></div>

<p>Chibber was born in India in 1965, and moved to the United States in 1980, where he has lived since. He completed a <a href="Bachelor_of_Arts" title="Bachelor of Arts">BA</a> in <a href="Political_science" title="Political science">political science</a> in 1987 at <a href="Northwestern_University" title="Northwestern University">Northwestern University</a>. In 1999, he finished his PhD in sociology at the <a href="University_of_Wisconsin" class="mw-redirect" title="University of Wisconsin">University of Wisconsin</a>, where his <a href="Dissertation" class="mw-redirect" title="Dissertation">dissertation</a> was supervised by <a href="Erik_Olin_Wright" title="Erik Olin Wright">Erik Olin Wright</a>. Chibber began as an assistant professor at <a href="New_York_University" title="New York University">New York University</a> in 1999, where he is now a full professor.<sup id="cite_ref-NYU_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-NYU-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Career">Career</h2></div>

<p>Chibber’s first book, <i>Locked in Place</i>, attempted to answer why some countries were able to build "developmental states" in the decades after <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a> while others were not. He argued that the literature on developmental state had unduly ignored the constraints that class power imposed on <a href="State-building" title="State-building">state-building</a>, particularly the power and influence of domestic <a href="Capitalism" title="Capitalism">capitalists</a>. Chibber showed that the main reason Indian industrial policy only met with middling success was that domestic capital blocked attempts to build an effective planning apparatus. Whereas in <a href="South_Korea" title="South Korea">South Korea</a>, the state managed to build an alliance with domestic business houses around <a href="Industrial_policy" title="Industrial policy">industrial planning</a>. Chibber's book was widely acclaimed and won several awards including, in 2005, <a href="Barrington_Moore_Jr." title="Barrington Moore Jr.">Barrington Moore Book Award</a>, and honorable mention for the <a href="American_Sociological_Association" title="American Sociological Association">American Sociological Association</a>’s Distinguished Publication Prize.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Criticism_of_postcolonialism">Criticism of postcolonialism</h3></div>

<p>Soon after <i>Locked in Place</i>, Chibber's agenda took a turn when, in 2006, he published "On the Decline of Class Analysis in South Asian Studies" in <i>Critical Asian Studies</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This article examined the <a href="Sociology" title="Sociology">sociological</a> conditions for the decline of class analysis and its displacement by <a href="Postcolonial_Theory" class="mw-redirect" title="Postcolonial Theory">Postcolonial Theory</a> in the South Asian context. While Chibber located the demise of class in the social conditions of the 1980s and 1990s, he did not in this article take on the content of postcolonial theory itself. This engagement came in his second book, <i><a href="Postcolonial_Theory_and_the_Specter_of_Capital" title="Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital">Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital</a></i>. In the Preface to the book, Chibber explains that once he examined the conditions that gave rise to postcolonial theory, he felt that he also had to examine its core arguments.

</p><p><i>Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital</i> was focused on one particular strand of theorizing, namely the <a href="Subaltern_Studies" title="Subaltern Studies">Subaltern Studies</a> collective. Chibber took Subaltern Studies as a representative of the key sociological and historical arguments in postcolonial studies. His basic argument in the book is that, even though postcolonial theory advertises itself as a critique of <a href="Orientalism" title="Orientalism">Orientalism</a> and <a href="Eurocentrism" title="Eurocentrism">Eurocentrism</a>, in fact the theory ends up resurrecting them.<sup id="cite_ref-Jacobin_6-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Jacobin-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In other words, postcolonial theory gives new life to Orientalist notions of the <a href="Global_South" class="mw-redirect" title="Global South">Global South</a>, by presenting a highly <a href="Exoticism" title="Exoticism">exoticized</a> and <a href="Essentialism" title="Essentialism">essentialized</a> understanding of it – as fundamentally different from the West, incapable of being understood by Western categories, its people untouched by reason and rationality, etc. Chibber bases his claims on an examination of the Subalternists’ <a href="Historical_sociology" title="Historical sociology">historical sociology</a> as well as their theoretical arguments. He embeds his critique in a defense of the radical <a href="Age_of_Enlightenment" title="Age of Enlightenment">Enlightenment</a> tradition as represented by Marx.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The publication of <i>Specter</i> touched off a very intense and wide-ranging debate between Chibber, members of the Subaltern Studies collective, and other intellectuals. Most prominently, <a href="Partha_Chatterjee_(scholar)" title="Partha Chatterjee (scholar)">Partha Chatterjee</a> and <a href="Gayatri_Spivak" class="mw-redirect" title="Gayatri Spivak">Gayatri Spivak</a> both criticized Chibber for his representation of the Subalternists’ work and postcolonial theory more generally.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Chibber responded in turn, denying that he had misrepresented his interlocutors and launching a counterattack of his own.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p><p>The ensuing debate was collected and published by <a href="Verso_Books" title="Verso Books">Verso Books</a> in 2016 as Rosie Warren (ed.), <i>The Debate on Postcolonial Theory and the Specter of Capital</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

</p>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Catalyst"><i>Catalyst</i></h3></div>

<p>In the spring of 2017, Chibber and <a href="Robert_Brenner" title="Robert Brenner">Robert Brenner</a> launched as well as assumed the editorial duties for the journal <i>Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy</i>. Published by <a href="Jacobin_(magazine)" title="Jacobin (magazine)">Jacobin Magazine</a>, Chibber and Brenner wrote of their intent for the new publication:

</p>

<blockquote><p>Discussion of capitalism is not off the table any longer. Catalyst: A Journal of Theory and Strategy launches with the aim of doing everything it can to promote and deepen this conversation. Our focus is, as our title suggests, to develop a theory and strategy with capitalism as its target — both in the North and in the Global South. It is an ambitious agenda, but this is a time for thinking big.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></p></blockquote>

<div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Other_works">Other works</h3></div>
