This critical essay (in French) proposes to discuss certain points of Malcom Ferdinand’s Une écologie décoloniale: Penser l’écologie depuis le monde caribéen (2019), translated by Anthony Paul Smith as Decolonial Ecology: Thinking from the Caribbean World (2022). It emphasizes three elements in particular: the fundamental importance of Une écologie décoloniale in decentering the French metropolitan gaze; the more global project of deconstructing dichotomous thinking that is carried out in the book; and the aesthetic dimension that runs through Une écologie décoloniale and plays a full part in its power and impact. The essay examines these various points, paying particular attention to the forms taken by Ferdinand’s discourse (rhetoric, symbolic system, networks of implicit meanings), demonstrating the close interweaving of theory and aesthetics
