``There is a strong continuity between Christendom and modernity. Modernity is a secularization of Christendom... If we want to move beyond capitalism then, we have to organise in an anti-systemic way.``
Voices of reading groups
``Postcolonialism uses assumptions that came out of European Enlightenment such as the notion of the subject-object dichotomy expressed as the self-other. These ideas can be traced to the poststructuralist projects of Derrida and Foucault.``
Voices of reading groups
“we are vulnerable to the strategies of anti-life and genocidal logics that seek to erase us and disallow our co-weaving of plural worlds, subjects and relations beyond this System which is at its end.”
About us
Reading Decoloniality is an inter-institutional platform for advanced study, dialogue and collaboration in decolonial research. Activities include an open-source publication (ISSN 2977-8573), reading group and residencies that produce and disseminate international and interdisciplinary scholarship answerable to communities, struggles, and ecologies.
We have an open membership. Members collectively develop quarterly programmes of speakers who write for our publication. We began as a working group at the Institute of Advanced Studies, University of Warwick (UK) and are expanding throughout the world.
