This book makes an important contribution to ongoing debates about the epistemological, ethical, ontological and political implications of relational ethics in higher education. By furthering theoretical developments on the ethics of care and critical posthumanism, it speaks to contemporary concerns for more socially just possibilities and enriched understandings of higher education pedagogies. The book considers how the political ethics of care and posthuman/new feminist materialist ethics can be diffracted through each other and how this can have value for thinking about higher education pedagogies. It includes ideas on ethics which push those boundaries that have previously served educational researchers and proposes new ways of conceptualising relational ethics. Chapters consider the entangled connections of the linguistic, social, material, ethical, political and biological in relation to higher education pedagogies. This topical and transdisciplinary book will be of great interest for academics, researchers and postgraduate students in the fields of posthuman and care ethics, social justice in education, higher education, and educational theory and policy.

This book troubles the ways young people have been constructed as ‘trouble’ through critical readings of the effects and impacts, politically and ideologically, globally and locally, of scholarship and practice directed at South African young people’s sexualities over the last three decades of addressing HIV, GBV and other sexual and gender justice challenges. Located primarily in South Africa, the book speaks to global concerns about the politics of knowledge and transnational flows of information and practice with respect to gender and sexuality and is framed by global imperatives and analyses located in transnational, postcolonial and intersectional feminist frameworks. The key argument developed here, and explored in relation to several different forms of research and practice, is that efforts to challenge HIV, GBV and unequal sexual and gender practices among young people, particularly as evident in heterosexual relationships, have tended to reflect and reproduce (re)new(ed) orthodoxies about sexuality, gender, family and young people, while bolstering global and local racist, classist ‘othering’ of certain communities and nation-states, and reiterating the ‘innocence’ and authority of those already privileged and centred. The book contributes to critical reflexive work on global practices of knowledge and its complex enmeshment with power in the terrain of sexual and gender justice work aimed at young people.

In searching for the potential that lies in African societies, the chapters of this volume consider relationships between knowledge, education and social structure from multiple angles, from a macro-continental scale to national education systems, schools and local communities. The themes that cut across the chapters include education as a mode of transmitting values, the contrasting effects of school credentials and knowledge for use, politics and interactions among people surrounding a school and knowledge acquisition as a subjective process. The rich empirical analyses suggest that the subjective commitment of, and mutuality among, people will make the acquired knowledge a powerful 'tool for conviviality' to realize a stable life, even given the turmoil created by rapid institutional and environmental changes that confront African societies.

In the USA, racism is the most widespread root of oppression. Black people in America, specifically, have suffered from centuries of discrimination and still struggle to receive the same privileges as their white peers. In other countries, however, there are other groups that face similar struggles. Discrimination and oppression based on religion, ethnicity, socio-economic status, political affiliation, and caste are just a few categories. However, education is a root for widespread societal change, making it essential that educators and systems of education enact the changes that need to occur to achieve equity for the groups being oppressed. Education as the Driving Force of Equity for the Marginalized highlights international research from the past decade about the role education is playing in the disruption and dismantling of perpetuated systems of oppression. This research presents the context, ideas, and mechanics behind impactful efforts to dismantle systems of oppression. Covering topics such as teacher preparation, gender inequality, and social justice, this work is essential for teachers, policymakers, college students, education faculty, researchers, administrators, professors, and academicians.

The knowledge society arises from the combination of four interdependent elements: the production of knowledge through research, its transmission through education, its dissemination through information and communication technologies, and its exploitation through innovation. For this reason, higher education institutions (HEIs) are the main component of the formation of intellectual capital because they are the key element of the knowledge society, so it is necessary that they continue to be the main source of the necessary skills that allow the increase of economic competitiveness, sustainability, and citizen welfare within the framework of quality education and equity. The Formation of Intellectual Capital and Its Ability to Transform Higher Education Institutions and the Knowledge Society is an essential research publication that provides systemic research on the formation of intellectual capital in higher education and its impact on the knowledge society. Highlighting topics such as educational programs, management strategy, and educational studies, this book is meant for educators, educational technologists, students, researchers, professionals, and administrators.

"“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"
