Higher education in post-apartheid South Africa was always likely to attract academic interest, and yet there remains a dearth of research on creating teaching and learning spaces suitable for students from diverse backgrounds. Using examples from higher education institutions across the Southern African Developing Community (SADC) region, this volume explores the ways teaching and learning spaces are being used to advance the transformation agenda of higher education in these regions, and provides concrete recommendations for the future. The book is sure to appeal to academics from a variety of disciplines - from African, African American and ethnic studies to education and sociology. It will be of particular interest to teacher trainers, administrators and policy-makers working in higher education, and anyone else with a stake in managing cultural diversity in education.

"“Unlocking the chains of knowledge: Understanding the challenges, remaking pedagogies, and curriculum renewal addresses the complex yet imperative task of reshaping the colonial legacy embedded within South African higher education and beyond. The book confronts the historical and ideological bindings that have entrenched European-centric knowledge within the fabric of academia in Africa, propelling a transformative journey within the Arts and Humanities. At its core, this work presents a tripartite focus: firstly, understanding the deep-seated issues ingrained in the traditional university structure; secondly, remaking pedagogical practices; and lastly, renewing the curriculum. Recognising the historical dominance of Eurocentric ideas, the book explores various movements, theories, and practices, from negritude to postcolonial theory, aiming to emancipate and amplify the voices and knowledge of those historically excluded. With a commitment to a pluralistic approach, the book scrutinises the power dynamics of language, the importance of diverse perspectives, and the challenging task of inclusion without replicating the divisive structures of the past.” - Prof. Christine Winberg, Research Chair in Work-integrated Learning, Cape Peninsula University of Technology “In Unlocking the chains of knowledge: Understanding the challenges, remaking pedagogies and curriculum renewal the editors provide a decisive and detailed reflection and profound understanding of complexities of knowledge generation in Southern Africa. Unlike many volumes that address these intricate complexities, this volume not only navigates the intricate complexities of the long history of epistemic injustices and intolerance in the Southern African higher education environment, but delves deeper into the core of what is required for curriculum transformation and renewal. The groundbreaking volume addresses the urgent need for linguistic inclusivity, consciousness about decoloniality, as well as embedding social justice in South African and Zimbabwean education and, by doing so, presents strategies that can be used by the rest of the African continent in addressing the scourge of coloniality.” - Prof. Pamela Maseko, Executive Dean: Faculty of Humanities, Nelson Mandela University"
