This book promotes constructive and nuanced transdisciplinary
understandings of some of the critical problems that we face on a
global scale today by thinking with and from the Global South. It
is engaged in transmodernising, pluriversalising, decolonising,
queering, and/or posthumanising thinking and practice. The book
aims to contribute to and challenge current debates regarding
knowledge, diversity, and change. This is achieved through the
application of transdisciplinary and indisciplined perspectives to
the Himalayan Anthropocene; transport services in Mexico City; the
EU-Turkey border regimes and policy; egoism and the decolonisation
of whiteness; the Witch and the decolonisation of the gender
binary; Nepalese students in Denmark; and the decolonisation of
global health promotion. The book thereby provides the reader a
multiplicity of pathways of knowledges and practices that address
current problems co-produced by the dominant Western colonial
onto-epistemic outset, giving way to ‘other’
knowledge-practices, towards a pluriversal approach. This book will
be of interest to upper-level undergraduate and graduate students
in disciplines such as human geography, development studies,
politics, international relations, sociology, anthropology,
cultural studies, planning, and philosophy. It is also relevant to
researchers, development workers and human rights/environmental
activists, and other intellectual practitioners.
