Exploring the enduring legacy of colonialism as it transitions through postcolonialism and neocolonialism, shaping identity, culture, and indigeneity, Hamid H. Kazeroony reveals how power structures, representation, and justice continue to be influenced by these forces, especially in the evolving landscape of AI.
Covering the rise of AI-driven data biases, extractive business models, and the persistence of Western-centric knowledge production, chapters highlight how AI can be leveraged to disrupt global inequalities, promoting intellectual and cultural equity. Topics include global governance, the ethical implications of AI, and the potential for AI to reorient entrenched colonial power structures, offering a nuanced exploration of how AI can help foster social justice and responsible management.
It provides a valuable resource for those seeking to understand and dismantle the colonial mindset in the digital age.
As an academic and enthusiast of decoloniality in the age of AI, I wholeheartedly endorse Hamid H. Kazeroony's book - ‘Decoloniality in the Age of AI’, as a groundbreaking contribution to both scholarship and practice. This book masterfully navigates the complex intersections of colonial legacies, artificial intelligence, and decolonial practices, offering a compelling and urgent call to rethink the technological systems that shape our world. Kazeroony's voice resonates with a rare clarity, weaving together theoretical rigor and actionable insights that speak directly to academics, practitioners, and leaders committed to justice and equity in an increasingly digitalized global landscape. This book is a must read as it positions AI as a site of critique and a potential catalyst for decolonial transformation. Bridging theoretical inquiry with practical application, it provides a valuable resource for graduate students, academics, and leaders striving to create a just society and responsible governance.
