While not all political scientists were colonial cheerleaders, their thinking was nevertheless framed by colonial assumptions that influence the study of politics to this day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis book offers students a lens through which to decolonise the main themes and issues of political science—from human nature, rights, and citizenship, to development and global justice. Not content with revealing the colonial legacies that still inform the discipline, the book also introduces students to a wide range of intellectual resources from the (post)colonial world that will help them think through the same themes and issues more expansively.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eDecolonizing Politics\u003c\/i\u003e is a much-needed critical guide for students of political science. It shifts the study of political science from the centres of power to its margins, where the majority of humanity lives. Ultimately, the book argues that those who occupy the margins are not powerless. Rather, marginal positions might afford a deeper understanding of politics than can be provided by mainstream approaches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47995373486316,"sku":"9781509539390","price":37.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781509539390-decolonizing-politics.jpg?v=1784895305"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/robbie-shilliam.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
