Abstract(s)
Em 2012 Eve Tuck e K. Wayne Yang publicaram o artigo “Decolonisation is not a Metaphor” que desconstruía a ideia de que a descolonização poderia ser um termo aplicável a todos os tipos de desigualdade e de injustiça social. Descolonização, como os autores argumentam, refere-se unicamente à experiência indígena da colonização e o processo pelo qual o que lhes foi retirado é restituído. Com base nessa premissa, este ensaio explora o vocabulário e gramática colonial e pós-colonial com o intuito de clarificar termos e a sua utilização como base para uma consciencialização sobre o que é e o que pode ser a descolonização.

Decolonization, as the authors argue, refers solely to indigenous peoples experience of colonialism and the process through which what was stolen from them is restituted. Taking this premise as a starting point, this essay explores the vocabulary and grammar of colonialism and postcolonialism with the aim of clarifying terms and their usage as a basis for a consciousness of what decolonization is and what it can be.
