Abstract | "Decolonisation as democratisation considers three factors that define the debate in South Africa on the decolonisation of the academy: educational aspiration, competing interests and political contestation. The book explores an academic system that attempt to serve two masters, the first being the historical beneficiaries of the academy (i.e. whiteness) and second being those who pin their hopes on the system in order to escape objection (i.e. blackness or indigeneity). The book highlights how the recent thrust of decoloniality protects the ideal of academic freedom and presents an argument that this ideal should not be used to protect the interests of the historical beneficiaries." |
