Untangling the tentacles of colonialism is not an easy task,
theoretically or in practice. Presenting a holistic view of
Decoloniality, its genetic makeup, and its complexities, this book
examines how colonialism has become embedded in power, language,
culture, institutions, and social structures across the globe, as
well as what it might take to relinquish postcolonial thinking in
search of a decolonized future. Incorporating perspectives from
both the Global North and the Global South, this book dismantles
colonial ways of thinking, clearing the way for indigenous and
marginalized groups to share their knowledge and expertise in
fighting global issues such as climate change. Encouraging
intersectional frameworks to open up to to new possibilities for
inclusion, author Hamid H. Kazeroony also explores colonization as
a gendered process tied to global capitalism and what this might
mean for feminist activism and scholarship. To achieve a
decolonized future, we must first understand our colonial past,
keeping those lessons close as we seek to reconsider and
restructure the ontology of epistemic inquiries.
