This book showcases Global South theorizations and understandings of gender.

By taking voices from the margins and putting them center stage, this book provides an important example of decoloniality in action, challenging a field that continues to be rooted in Western Feminist epistemology. This book first analyzes the history and development of gender discourse, before going on to investigate non-Western philosophy and frameworks around gender. Each chapter presents instances of decoloniality in action, with possible retheorizations and rationalizations of how to be decolonial within gender discourse and praxis. This book concludes by considering what the future implications of a truly decolonial gender discourse and praxis would be.

Offering detailed empirical accounts of decoloniality in action, this book will be a useful guide for researchers of gender and post-colonial studies.
