and Present Struggles for Alternative Education
Past
For indigenous peoples and non-traditional populations education
was a mechanism not of emancipation but of integration into an
oppressive culture; to be socially accepted meant assimilation into
a society alien to their cultural practices. The increasing visibility
of these groups in every area of the economy, politics and society,
has brought a myriad of proposals for inclusionary pedagogies and
alternative sites for the production of knowledges. The papers
presented in this panel will document struggles for decolonizing
knowledge in the Andean region; the challenges facing the social
sciences for incorporating anti-patriarchal, anti-racist and decolonial
strategies, and for re-thinking development studies.
