Decolonising the Built Environment: Process, Product and Pedagogy

Editat de Kundani Makakavhule, Karina Landman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 4 feb 2025
Decolonising the Built Environment: Process, Product, and Pedagogy provides an important and much-needed comprehensive overview of how decolonisation is shaping the built environment in theory, practice, and as a process/project today. Chapters provide an inclusive and trans-national conversation between a diverse set of academics, design practitioners and thinkers, and activists. This book is structured around three thematic and practical categories: Part 1 studies decolonisation conceptually; Part 2 studies decolonisation as a process; and Part 3 studies the products of decolonisation – as materialised in the form of buildings, urban design, planning, policy, and social practices.
Essential reading for students, teachers, and practitioners, this book presents the project of decolonisation as a pedagogy and an ongoing process.
