Colonization And Epistemic Injustice In Higher Education

<P>Providing coherence in understanding the role that education and higher education played in the colonizing purposes of the rich nations of the North, this book draws from multiple geopolitical spaces across the world to consider how epistemic injustice has characterized colonial higher education systems. </P><P></P><P>Within this text, carefully chosen international contributors explore how colonialism, coloniality, and colonization have impacted indigenous people¿s ways of knowing, feeling, behaving, valuing, being, and becoming in fundamental ways and how the West¿s idea of education and schooling have been used as key instruments in the project of world domination and subjugation. Beyond these key entry concepts, chapters use ideas of modernity, post-modernism, globalization, internationalization, and neo-liberalism to examine how higher education in colonial and post-colonial societies still answers to a colonial narrative and what can be done to decolonize the system.</P><P>Unp
