Building the Anti-Racist University

Omtale

In the new arena for anti-racist work in which we find ourselves, the neo-liberal, post-race university, this interdisciplinary collection demonstrates common global political concerns about racism in Higher Education. It highlights a range of issues regarding students, academic staff and knowledge systems, and all of the contributions seek to challenge the complacency of the post-race present that is dominant in North-West Europe and North America, Brazils mythical racial democracy and South Africas post-apartheid rainbow nation. The collection makes clear that we are not yet past the need for anti-racist institutional action because of the continuing impact of coloniality on and in these nations.
