WOOD, DAN. Decolonizing Knowledge: An Epistemographical Mise en Place. Tabula Rasa [online]. 2017, n.27, pp.301-337. ISSN 1794-2489. https://doi.org/10.25058/20112742.453.
In this paper I analyze and chart a number of the different conceptual and philosophical issues pertinent to discourses concerning 'epistemic decolonization.' Such discussions occur across a wide range of disciplines and often involve equivocations and/or overt disagreements about fundamental issues. This piece offers one account of why epistemic (de)colonization is a problem in the first place and brings to light some of the key differences between a number of different approaches to the decolonization of knowledge. The present clarification, I argue, is crucial to linking projects of theoretical decolonization to concrete political programs and to overcoming a prima facie approach to decolonizing knowledge.
