This book advances critical discussions about what coloniality,
decoloniality and decolonization mean and imply in the Nordic
region. It brings together analysis of complex realities from the
perspectives of the Nordic peoples, a region that are often
overlooked in current research, and explores the processes of
decolonization that are taking place in this region. The book
offers a variety of perspectives that engage with issues such as
Islamic feminism and the progressive left; racialization and agency
among Muslim youths; indigenizing distance language education for
Sami; extractivism and resistance among the Sami; the Nordic
international development endeavour through education; Swedish
TV-reporting on Venezuela; creolizing subjectivities across Roma
and non-Roma worlds and hierarchies; and the whitewashing and
sanitization of decoloniality in the Nordic region. As such, this
book extends much of the productive dialogue that has recently
occurred internationally in decolonial thinking but also in the
areas of critical race theory, whiteness studies, and postcolonial
studies to concrete and critical problems in the Nordic region.
This should make the book of considerable interest to scholars of
history of ideas, anthropology, sociology, cultural studies,
postcolonial studies, international development studies, legal
sociology and (intercultural) philosophy with an interest in
coloniality and decolonial social change.
