With Decolonizing Methodologies, Linda Tuhiwai Smith made us rethink the relationship between scholarly research and the legacies of colonialism, and to confront the reality that, for the colonized, such research was often inextricably bound up with memories of exploitation. Offering a visionary new 'decolonizing' approach to research methodology, her book has continued to inspire generations of decolonial and Indigenous scholars. This essential volume explores intersections of imperialism and research - specifically, the ways in which imperialism is embedded in disciplines of knowledge and tradition as 'regimes of truth.' Concepts such as 'discovery' and 'claiming' are discussed and an argument presented that the decolonization of research methods will help to reclaim control over Indigenous ways of knowing and being. Now in its eagerly awaited third edition, this bestselling book includes a co-written introduction featuring contributions from Indigenous scholars on the book's continued relevance to current research. It also features a chapter outlining twenty more Indigenous projects and a collection of poetry.
