Description
Decolonizing Geography: An Introduction offers a comprehensive guide to understanding the origins and implications of decolonial thought in geography. Sarah A. Radcliffe explores how colonialism has shaped the discipline, introducing key concepts that challenge traditional understandings of people, environments, and nature.
This book presents an original synthesis of diverse literatures, covering international origins of decolonial ideas, Indigenous thinking, coloniality-modernity, Black geographies, and decolonial feminisms of colour. Radcliffe provides a systematic approach to decolonizing geography's understanding of space, place, nature, global-local relations, the Anthropocene, and more.
Ideal for students and instructors seeking to broaden their understanding of geographical education, Decolonizing Geography is an essential resource for anyone looking to reframe the discipline in a decolonial light.
