Dissenting Knowledges Pamphlet Series
This pamphlet series is built on the twin recognition that there is today no more urgent task than understanding the political and epistemological consequences of the imposition of the West upon the entire world, and at the same time endeavoring to work, in myriad ways, towards the decolonization of academic disciplines.
It seeks to furnish intellectuals, scholars, and activists who are committed to harvesting theories of knowledge, livelihoods and lifestyles, and forms of political awareness that are calculated to create more genuine forms of equality, justice, and plurality with a more public forum of informed and dissenting opinion than is customarily available through scholarly monographs and learned journals. The series is edited by Vinay Lal.
