Recensioner i media

"This is a bold and critical engagement with (de)coloniality, Whiteness, epistemic and structural injustices, and radical imaginaries. While situated in the Finnish context, it has global relevance, providing a depth and breadth of scholarly and experiential knowledges. It certainly succeeds in its aim of challenging the dominance of Western scholarly discourses and reimagining social work futures." Linda Harms-Smith, Professor of Social Work, University of Pretoria, South Africa
