The Emerald Handbook of Decolonising Sustainability
Emerald Publishing Limited (Verlag)
978-1-83608-217-0 (ISBN)
The field of management studies have long been criticised for its predominantly Western-centric perspective. The Emerald Handbook of Decolonising Sustainability: A Global South Perspective fosters a more profound understanding of research and discourse on sustainability across the Global South. It deconstructs current thinking by presenting alternative viewpoints that enhance the understanding and engagement of communities in the Global South in the process of achieving sustainable development.
The editors argue that there is a need to decolonise sustainability by the inclusion of indigenous epistemologies and examining indigenous perspectives that investigate the interrelated and interdependent relationship between individuals and the environment. This perspective on sustainability challenges conventional Western concepts of "development" that presuppose a clear separation between human and planetary existence.
The interdisciplinary nature of the topics covered appeal to readers in a range of disciplines across business and social sciences, as well as those interested in understanding the ongoing complex debate on sustainability, energy transition and social justice.
