Full Description
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, Brazil's mythical 'racial democracy' and South Africa's 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.
