Curriculum Transmodernity Towards a non-Derivative Itinerant Curriculum Theory

Volume Editor: João M. Paraskeva

This volume is a beacon against the epistemicidal nerve of the eld. The volume explores numerous critical, post-structural, anti-colonial, and decolonial epistemological avenues to help dismantle such an epistemicidal blueprint. In doing so, contributors of the volume enjoy and explore the limitless potential of the itinerant curriculum theory to interrupt and disestablish the eld’s original sin: eugenics. The volume champions a newer, itinerant theoretical path that addresses the theorycide the eld is facing and calls for a radical cohabitus of multifaceted epistemological perspectives within and beyond Modern Western Eurocentric platforms, recognizing the world’s diverse and varied epistemological perspectives to address its needs. The volume unveils the splendour of the itinerant curriculum theory in the struggle against the educational epistemicide.
