Synopsis

In this book Harshad Keval offers an intensely personal testimony of racial trauma within the academy. Proposing the theoretical model of “white narcissistic structures” the author traces the paradox of academic institutions simultaneously embracing a progressive and neo-liberal “cos-play” while continuing to generate and maintain racial trauma.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Harshad Keval is a writer and activist scholar, with special interests in race-critical and decolonial social theory, theories of coloniality and racism, antiracism, social justice and institutional power and resistance. His work journey has involved exploring medical anthropology, medical sociology, mental health, cultural epidemiology and international health, across European and global sites. He has worked as a shop assistant, textile factory worker, labourer, bar tender, data analyst, lecturer, and consultant to organisations aiming at racial justice in education. More recently he has written on race and genetics, race-based trauma and epistemologies of whiteness and institutional ignorance. He works across and beyond disciplinary boundaries and seeks to connect with spaces and voices of creativity and liberation that often lie beyond the epistemic and physical walls of traditional Euro-modern systems of knowledge and practice. He remains resolutely an outsider on the inside of academia.
