ABSTRACT
Having traced the mutual criticisms and intersections between postcolonialism and development studies in preceding chapters, this chapter sets out an agenda for a postcolonial development studies, both in theory and in practice. Previous chapters highlighted the significance of acknowledging location and the partial nature of all knowledges in producing postcolonial development knowledges, and the value of engaging with regional scholarship to overcome the parochialism of many Northern-based and Northern-dominated disciplines. Transforming the production and circulation of knowledge and developing a more cosmopolitan scholarship is thus of critical importance. Effecting such transformations is vital in allowing the theoretical advancements of postcolonialism to reshape development practice. This chapter outlines some of the strategies that might enable the production of postcolonial knowledge.
