Theory and Praxis
Reflections on the Colonization of Knowledge
Paperback Engels 2021 1e druk 9781032175676Samenvatting
This book proposes a New Enlightenment – a new way of looking at the non-Western world. Breaking new ground, the essays chart a course beyond Eurocentric discourses (which completely ignore the contributions of Asia, Africa and Latin-America) and forms of nativism (which are usually ethnocentric discourses).
The volume:
Focuses on the historical aspects of knowledge-production and its colonization;
Examines the genre of multilinear histories that displaces hegemonic Eurocentric discourses;
Enlarges the scope of multilinear historicism whereby Asia, Europe, Africa and the Americas are drawn in a new humanistic knowledge system;
Studies how colonization is resisted in both the non-Western and Western world.
Lucid and engaging, this book will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of social theory, education, politics and public policy.
