Postcolonial Challenges in Education traces the palimpsest histories of imperialism and
colonialism and puts to work the catachrestic interventions of anti-imperialist and
decolonizing projects. This book functions as a set of theoretical empirical and pedagogical
challenges to two fields of scholarship. It points out the inadequate attention to issues of
education in studies of imperialism and colonialism as well as the relative absence of empire
as a relevant category of analysis in studies of education. It brings together many of the
world's leading and emerging scholars who engage with the key debates and dilemmas in
postcolonial and educational studies and ushers in a collective of dissident voices that
unabashedly aim to contest and reconfigure the current local-global order.
