| Abstract: | The concept of "decoloniality"--i.e. defying Western customs and standards of knowledge acquisition--has captured the field of Comparative Education. The author argues that the pervasiveness of decoloniality at all levels of education is of special concern and that the leftist turn of so many academic associations is antithetical to reasoned scholarship. |
