Book Synopsis Decolonizing the Academy by : Carole Boyce Davies
Book excerpt: Decolonizing the Academy asserts that the academy,is perhaps the most colonized space. At the same,time the academy is a place of knowledge and,transformation. As we move into the 21st century,it is becoming clear that the academy is one of,the primary sites for the production and,reproduction of ideas that serve the interests of,colonising powers. This collection of essays,argues the possibility of re-engaging the,decolonizing process at the level of knowledge and,asserts that this is an ongoing project worthy of,being undertaken in a variety of fields.
