“This programme of study offers a theoretical framework and methodology to support educators to read the cultural logics (systems of meaning and representation) of specific indigenous groups in relation to concepts related to the agenda for international development (e.g. development, poverty eradication, equality, education, etc.). This cross-cultural exercise invites learners to examine the origins of their own perceptions and cultural logics (their values and assumptions), to develop self-reflexivity, to re-evaluate their own positions in the global context and to learn from other local ways of knowing and seeing.” (from the self-description) A critical self-reflection by the authors entitled “Translating theory…

It applies postcolonial theory as a framework of analysis that attempts to engage with and go beyond essentialism, ethno- and euro-centrisms through a critical examination of contemporary case studies and conceptual issues. From a transdisciplinary and post-colonial perspective, this book offers critiques of notions of development, progress, humanism, culture, representation, identity, and education. It also examines the implications of these critiques in terms of pedagogical approaches, social relations and possible future interventions.” (from the book description) Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti / Lynn Mario T.M.

“Actionable Postcolonial Theory in Education illustrates how postcolonial theory can be put to work in education. It offers an accessible and handy overview and comparison of postcolonial theory and other theoretical debates related to critiques of Western ethnocentrism and hegemony.
