Curriculum: Decanonizing the Field is a fresh and innovative
collection that is concerned with the totalitarian Western
Eurocentric cult that has dominated the field of curriculum
studies. Contributors to this volume challenge dominant and
counter-dominant curriculum positions of the Western Eurocentric
epistemic platform. At a time when the field laudably claims
internationalization as a must, arguments presented in this volume
prove that this "internationalization" is nothing more than the new
Western expansionism, one that dominates all other cultures,
economies and knowledges. Curriculum: Decanonizing the Field is a
clarion call against curriculum epistemicides, proposing the use of
Itinerant Curriculum Theory (ICT), which opens up the canon of
knowledge; challenges and destroys the coloniality of power,
knowledge and being; and transforms the very idea and practice of
power. The volume is essential reading for anyone involved in one
of the most important battles for curriculum relevance - the fact
that there is no social justice without cognitive justice.
