Grounded in the work of major thinkers in post-structuralism, these narratives reflect on higher education as a community of scholars without community. The authors highlight what specifically motivates their pedagogical affirmations and orientations, analyse why they are concerned with social justice education, and what they envisage the alternative futures of higher education to be - that is, futures in which discrimination, oppression, violence and inequality are waning or have been eradicated. Through their own narratives, the authors tackle the educational matter of poststructuralist human encounters and expand upon the notion of social justice education. In doing so, they argue for higher education on the African continent as an alternative discourse that can be responsive to political, societal and environmental dystopias. 650 0 $a Education, Higher $z Africa. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008118905 650 0 $a Education, Higher $x Philosophy. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008102769 650 0 $a Social justice $x Study and teaching (Higher) $z Africa. 650 0 $a Poststructuralism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh97005237 700 1 $a Waghid, Faiq, $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2017015083 $e author. 700 1 $a Terblanche, Judith, $e author. 700 1 $a Waghid, Zayd, $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2017014840 $e author. 830 0 $a Palgrave pivot. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2012160523 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20211102014748.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=FA9FC5F43BA411EC87B0DC564EECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
