This book presents theoretical and methodical discussions on local
knowledge and indigenous knowledge. It examines educational
attainment of ethnic minorities, race and politics in educational
systems, and the problem of losing indigenous knowledge. It
comprises a broad range of case studies about specifics of local
knowledge from several regions of the world, reflecting the
interdependence of norms, tradition, ethnic and cultural
identities, and knowledge. The contributors explore gaps between
knowledge and agency, address questions of the social distribution
of knowledge, consider its relation to communal activities, and
inquire into the relation and intersection of knowledge assemblages
at local, national, and global scales. The book highlights the
relevance of local and indigenous knowledge and discusses
implications for educational and developmental politics. It
provides ideas and a cross-disciplinary scientific background for
scholars, students, and professionals including NGO activists, and
policy-makers.
