Decolonising the University: The Challenge of Deep Cognitive Justice

At each particular historical moment, the university appears as a heavy and rigid structure resisting changes, whereas, throughout time, it has actually undergone profound transformation.

Often such changes have been drastic and almost always provoked by factors external to the university, be they of a religious, political or economic nature.

This book explores the nature and dynamics of the transformation that the university is undergoing today.

It argues that some of the projects of reform currently under way are so radical that the question of the future of the university may well turn into the question of whether the university has a future.
