Decolonizing the Westernized University: Interventions in Philosophy of Education from Within and Without - Softcover
Synopsis
It is assumed institutions of higher education are a means to upward socioeconomic mobility and in turn a way of addressing poverty that is tied to certain racialized/sexualized bodies. But this is not always the case, and this book examines the various dimensions of the education crisis and provides a sharper understanding of the crisis and the responses to the westernized university at multiple sites around the world.

Review
This volume offers a highly insightful contribution to debates in critical pedagogy as well as to practices of decolonisation more generally.... [T]he volume unambiguously succeeds in conveying the urgency with which the Westernised university needs to be decolonised.--Marx and Philosophy Review of Books
