- This book of 140,000 words investigates the 'coloniality' of colonial education in depth and from different historical and conceptual perspectives, exploring colonial education both as a facet of colonialism and an example of education. Most of the material is new, and where the book draws on previously published material (which featured in four pre-2014 articles) it is reframed and enriched with subsequent research. The project took 10 years. The research, partly funded by the Leverhulme Trust, was carried out in libraries in three countries, and involved a large and varied body of texts, some canonical, some little-known, some quite rare.
