To what extent do Western political and economic interests distort
perceptions and affect the Western production of research about the
other? The concept of 'colonializing epistemologies' describes how
knowledges outside the Western purview are often not only rendered
invisible but either absorbed or destroyed. Decolonizing
Interpretive Research outlines a form of oppositional study that
undertakes a critical analysis of bodies of knowledge in any field
that engages with issues related to the lives and survival of those
deemed as other. It focuses on creating intellectual spaces that
will facilitate new readings of the world and lead toward change,
both in theory and practice. The book begins by conceptualizing the
various aspects of the decolonizing interpretive research approach
for the reader, and the following six chapters each focus on one of
these issues, grounded in a specific decolonizing interpretive
study. With a foreword by Linda Tuhiwai Smith, this book will allow
readers to not only engage with the conceptual framework of this
decolonizing methodology but will also give them access to examples
of how the methodology has informed decolonizing interpretive
studies in practice.
