This volume bridges the gap between contemporary theoretical debates and educational policies and practices. It applies postcolonial theory as a framework of analysis that attempts to engage with and go beyond essentialism, ethno- and euro-centrisms through a critical examination of contemporary case studies and conceptual issues. From a transdisciplinary and post-colonial perspective, this book offers critiques of notions of development, progress, humanism, culture, representation, identity, and education. It also examines the implications of these critiques in terms of pedagogical approaches, social relations and possible future interventions.

Vanessa de Oliveira Andreotti holds a professorial chair in global education at the University of Oulu, Finland and is also associated with the University of Canterbury, in Aotearoa/New Zealand. Lynn Mario T. M. de Souza is Professor of English at the Modern Languages Department of the University of São Paulo.
