Participatory Research, Capabilities and Epistemic Justice: A Transformative Agenda for Higher Education de Melanie Walker

Participatory Research, Capabilities and Epistemic Justice: A Transformative Agenda for Higher Education

Editat de Melanie Walker, Alejandra Boni
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 noi 2021
This book explores the potential of participatory research and the capability approach to transform understandings of higher education. The editors and contributors illuminate the importance of epistemic in/justice as a foundation to a reflexive, inclusive and decolonial approach to knowledge, as well as its importance to democratic life and participation in higher education. Drawing together eight global case studies, the authors argue for an ecology of knowledge that expands epistemic capabilities in higher education through teaching, research and policy making. Moreover, the chapters illustrate how these epistemic capabilities can be marginalised by both institutions and structural and historical factors; as well as the potential for possibilities when spaces are opened for genuine participation and designed for a plurality of voices. This book will appeal to scholars of social justice and participatory research as well as ongoing debates around decolonising the academy.

Recenzii

“This wide-ranging edited volume by Melanie Walker and Alejandra Boni beautifully captures the potential for university-based participatory action research (PAR) to influence epistemic spaces in the wider community. Moreover, and perhaps most interestingly, it does so by invoking the insights of the capability approach. … The editors deserve to be congratulated for this collection of essays that lend both depth and breadth to the book. … The 10 chapters in this excellent volume help us understand why.” (Stacy J. Kosko, Journal of Human Development and Capabilities, Vol. 23 (1), 2022)

Textul de pe ultima copertă

"This marvellous collection assembles a set of highly insightful essays that blend the capability approach and participatory action research in order to fight epistemic injustices in higher education contexts. Highly congenial to Freirean pedagogy, the collection vividly demonstrates the epistemic and emancipatory power of participatory knowledge production from below."
—Julian Culp, The American University of Paris, France

"This is a splendid book which makes a significant, important and original contribution to the broad field of education and social justice. It successfully brings together the concepts of epistemic justice, participatory research and capabilities formation in eight exciting cases of substantial projects which involve participants who have been traditionally silent or silenced in different global contexts."
—Monica Mclean, University of Nottingham, UK
