Ubuntu and Buddhism in Higher Education theorizes the equal
privileging of ontology and epistemology towards a balanced focus
on 'being-becoming' and knowledge acquisition within the field of
higher education. In response to the shift in higher education's
aims and purposes beginning in the latter half of the 20th century,
this book reconsiders higher education and Western subjectivity
through southern African (Ubuntu) and Eastern (Buddhist)
onto-epistemologies. By mapping these other-than-West ontological
viewpoints onto the discourse surrounding higher education, this
volume presents a vision of colleges and universities as
transformational institutions promoting our shared connection to
the human and non-human world, and deepens our understanding of
what it means to be a human being.
