Autoetnografie retrospektywne, czyli dekolonialny Nowy Uniwersytet
Retrospective Autoethnographies: A Call for Decolonial Imaginings of the New University

Summary/Abstract: The article presents “retrospective autoethnographies” as a methodology for decolonialinquiry/intervention in the context of neoliberal settings, specifically the university.Autoethnography represents that epistemic and methodological space where thepersonal intersects with the political, historical, and cultural to critique everyday powerstructures. Instead of inserting the autobiographical past into the present, we write ofour present and our desire for a utopian future to begin to create an image of the NewUniversity. Together, as people raised in the postcolony and within coloniality, we beginat the negative affect as neoliberal universities invisibilize, surveil, audit, and discipline– but then, we strive to imagine a New University characterized by radical hope, doingso alongside student movements pushing for decolonizing the university. This articleis envisioned as an exhortation for a decolonial intervention of radically dreaming theNew University into place.
