This book considers the work of the preeminent scholar on
decoloniality, Sabelo Ndlovu-Gatsheni, as a means of examining the
development of decoloniality discourse and considering the future
direction of the African knowledge economy. Sabelo Ndlovu-Gatsheni has
been instrumental in the construction of theories and ideas necessary
for advancing a decolonial system of education and epistemology. This
book considers how Professor Ndlovu-Gatsheni’s work has helped to
shape our thinking both on Mugabe and the history of Zimbabwe, and
beyond to the broader questions of race, liberation, higher education,
and the future of decolonial studies. Renowned author Professor Toyin
Falola then invites us to consider the dangers of continued repression
of African epistemologies, and the enormous benefits of an alternative
knowledge economy in which a diverse multiplicity of ideas drives our
understanding of the world on to new heights. Unpacking the various
conceptual leanings of decoloniality through the works of one of its
leading lights, this book will be an essential read for researchers
across the fields of African Studies, Race Studies, Philosophy, and
Education.
