Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. This book puts contemporary calls for decolonisation in context. Featuring an interdisciplinary team of scholars from around the world, the book explores and critically assesses the diverse theoretical visions which inform calls for decolonisation of the mind today.Contemporary calls to decolonise focus less on politico-economic relations between states, more on culture and ideas. Sometimes museums are the target, sometimes universities or academic disciplines, sometimes entire legal systems. Commentators and activists speak out for, others against, intellectual decolonisation: decolonisation of the mind. But what is the colonisation which intellectual decolonisation undoes? Under what circumstances can inculcation or acceptance of ideas constitute colonialism? As this book demonstrates, advocates of intellectual decolonisation give very differentindeed, incompatibleanswers to these questions. Critically examining conceptualisations of decolonisation spanning a century and four continents, the book explores what is at stake in the choice between these theoretical alternatives. Some see the aim of decolonisation as truth, via the removal of distorting effects of power and bias. Others troublingly subordinate truth and knowledge to ethnic or regional identity, potentially paving the way for culturally authoritarian politics.Intellectual Decolonisation: Critical Perspectives is an indispensable resource for teachers, students and scholars seeking to deepen their understanding of debates about decolonisation of the mind. Individual chapters will interest researchers of the new right-wing, ethnonationalist political ideologies emerging in Europe, Asia and Africa. Originally published as a special issue of Social Dynamics, this book is also a guide for anyone wondering what decolonisation is all about. This book puts contemporary calls for decolonisation in context. Featuring an interdisciplinary team of scholars from around the world, the book explores and critically assesses the diverse theoretical visions which inform calls for decolonisation of the mind today.
