Persisting coloniality: Thoughts on intentionality, ideology, majority defensiveness, and meritocracy

Prof. dr. Michael Meeuwis, Ghent University

Webinar for the University of Amsterdam, 2020-10-01

"Michael Meeuwis of Ghent University will take you from Joseph Conrad's Belgian Congo of the 1890s to Chinua Achebe's (and others')

condemnation of European images of Africa, addressing the issue of the cohabitation of good intentions with conflicting belief systems, and from there proceed to how since the end of colonization (+-1960) coloniality has persisted in white attitudes towards the Global South as a region towards its presence in the Global North. This path will also allow him to confront the unreflected and un-selfreflecting nature of majority normativities (including structural racism but also others), the weaknesses of majority defensiveness when using intentionality as its only yardstick, and the need, for instance in university management, to at least move beyond

meritocracy if anyone anywhere wants to redress anything any time at all."
