商品描述
This book explores the transformation of the South African higher education system 30 years after democracy. It examines the progress, tensions, and possibilities through a detailed analysis of how inclusion, curriculum transformation, and epistemological shifts have shaped--and continue to shape--South African higher education. The chapters draw on a range of theoretical frameworks, including decolonization, Africanization, and intersectionality. The book argues that while the South African higher education system has made significant strides in expanding access and fostering critical engagement, the journey toward full transformation remains an ongoing endeavor. The conclusions reached in the book suggest that deep inclusion, meaningful curriculum transformation, and epistemic justice require sustained institutional commitment, policy alignment, and active engagement with students, academics, and society at large.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討南非高等教育系統在民主三十年後的轉型。它通過詳細分析包容性、課程轉型和認識論變革如何塑造——並持續塑造——南非高等教育，檢視進展、緊張關係和可能性。各章節借鑒了多種理論框架，包括去殖民化、非洲化和交叉性。本書主張，儘管南非高等教育系統在擴大入學機會和促進批判性參與方面取得了顯著進展，但邁向全面轉型的旅程仍然是一項持續的努力。本書得出的結論表明，深度包容、有意義的課程轉型和認識正義需要持續的機構承諾、政策對齊，以及與學生、學者和整個社會的積極參與。
