The second annual
conference of the Theological Society of Malawi was held at the historic
Ekwendeni Campus of the University of Livingstonia from 14 to 16
September 2021. It took up the urgent theme of the decolonization of the
theological curriculum. Though Malawi has been an independent country
for 58 years, coloniality still stalks the land. This book calls
theologians to take a lead in decolonization, while navigating the
educational task in an online age. With more than twenty institutions
teaching theology at tertiary level in Malawi, and now united in the
Theological Society of Malawi, there is huge potential to learn from
each other in developing the theological curriculum in the country.
While the primary audience is unashamedly a Malawian one, this book
might also prove relevant in other contexts where there is a reckoning
with past and present experience of colonialism. The book is a call to
action and is published in the hope that it will have lasting impact on
the teaching and learning of theology in Malawi and beyond.
Price range: £51.00 through £53.00
