Listado de lecturas para la descolonización de la academia

El portal Democracy in Africa publicó el pasado 30 de agosto el texto “NEW FOR 2020: The Decolonizing the Academy Reading List”, en el cual se realiza una significativa recopilación de lecturas sobre política africana a partir de voces del continente. Debido a su relevancia hemos solicitado permiso a los autores para publicar el mismo en Africaye. Agradecemos a Democracy in Africa su generosidad para permitir su publicación en nuestra web y esperamos ayude a ampliar el conocimiento a aquellas personas interesadas en profundizar y ampliar la mirada sobre diferentes temas capitales de la política africana. Tal como dicen los autores en la introducción, la lista de textos que reproducimos a continuación por temáticas, está fundamentalmente centrada en recursos en lengua inglesa, y vosotr@s, ¿que otras lecturas recomendaríais? ¿en otras lenguas? Las puedes incluir en los comentarios del post.

Listado de lecturas para la descolonización de la academia

En respuesta a las solicitudes de colegas y amigos, algunos de los cuales dijeron que querían diversificar las lecturas para sus cursos pero no siempre estaban seguros de cómo hacerlo, hemos reunido este conjunto de lecturas sobre política africana: la lista de lectura Descolonizing the Academy.

Esta lista de lectura se recopiló en 2015 en solidaridad con quienes actualmente intentan descolonizar la academia. Lo hemos actualizado para 2020 para reflejar nuestro compromiso continuo con este objetivo y nuestro apoyo a los movimientos #BlackInTheIvory y #BlackLivesMatter. Para ser claros, nuestros esfuerzos aquí se concentran en poner a disposición tantas fuentes como sea posible escritas por académicos africanos. La lista se ha obtenido de forma colectiva, por lo que si no se incluye a alguien, es solo porque no se ha propuesto. Agradecemos sus recomendaciones de lecturas sobresalientes para agregar a esta bibliografía; hágalo a través de la sección de comentarios al final (NT.del artículo original)

Puede descargar un PDF de la lista de lectura aquí: Descolonizing the Academy – The African Politics Reading List 2020.

NB: Actualmente, esta lista se centra en traducciones y textos en inglés, pero estamos desarrollando listas en otros idiomas y agradeceríamos sus sugerencias a continuación.
