Decolonizing Indigenous Education

Decolonizing Indigenous Education: An Amazigh/Berber Ethnographic Journey, 1st Edition, examines the development of an educational philosophy alongside the sociological foundations of an education system for the Kabyle of Algeria.

Using an autoethnographic approach centered on the Amazigh and Berber people, the book analyzes the complexities of cultural recognition and cultural recovery. It reflects on how community traditions and indigenous knowledge have persisted through multiple colonial regimes and ongoing political repression, considering the ways education can restore hope and courage.

Through narrative episodes and personal reflexivity, the volume offers direct insight into Kabyle life and regional landscapes while challenging mainstream research conventions and schooling.
