Description
Summary:In this review of "Higher Education Hauntologies: Living with Ghosts for a Justice-to-Come," we traverse an anthology that scrutinises the enduring systemic injustices in higher education. Drawing upon post-humanist theories, the book critiques the colonial legacies, Western-centric knowledge paradigms, and neoliberal ideologies that continue to influence these systems. Amid these critiques, it advocates for a future of justice-to-come, urging a transformative shift towards more inclusive and equitable educational models, thereby resonating with the realities and aspirations of the Global South. To imagine the future of justice-to-come, higher education in the Global South must excogitate the place of knowledge in developing a socially just curriculum to address epistemic in/justices.
