Decolonization, Early Childhood Education, and Human Rights-Based Approach: Regenerating New Cultures, Perspectives, and Actors

Journal Title: Education Quarterly Reviews - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

This paper critically argues that education is considered one of the strategic tools in slicing up the colonial legacy, mentality, and ‘the neo-colonialism governance.' This comes from a reflection on a supra-domination showed by the liberal countries to the developing countries specifically relating to the practice of early childhood education (ECE) under the shadow of a colonial atmosphere. Thus, this paper is aimed to propose a decolonization and human rights as perspectives in ‘regenerating' a new model of ECE in the non-Western world that presents new triangle aspects: cultures, perspectives, and actors.
