Decolonising the Built Environment: Process, Product and Pedagogy

This book provides an important and much-needed comprehensive overview of how decolonisation is shaping the built environment in theory, practice, and as a process/project today. Part one studies decolonisation conceptually; part two studies decolonisation as a process; and part three studies the products of decolonisation.
