Abstract
This edited collection proposes new ways of conceptualizing relational ethics in higher education decolonization based on political and affective forces of refusal. More broadly, we hope to make a contribution to ongoing Southern and international debates about the epistemological, ethical, ontological and political implications of refusal in higher education, particularly in line with contemporary concerns for a need to redefine and redress different kinds of socially just possibilities and visions in higher education, ones premised not on settler colonial but, rather, on decolonial terms. To this end, several authors in this volume engage with their local historical and political university contexts pertaining to Black, Indigenous, queer and feminist theories of refusal and explore how such place-based pedagogies work both with and against global (North/South) decolonial perspectives
