Abstract

With the emergence of discussions surrounding decolonisation of academia, European law schools and European legal knowledge have largely been exempted from scrutiny regarding their creation, participation in, condoning, dissemination, and fostering of coloniality. Adébísí's volume, Decolonisation and Legal Knowledge: Reflections on Power and Possibility, fills this void and highlights the importance of disrupting and dismantling coloniality within European legal knowledge as a starting point for decolonisation.
