How a historiography of Development Studies can provide starting points for a decolonization of development knowledge? How scholarly commitment to emancipatory knowledge production and practice can best challenge defamatory populism and counter racist narratives in the popular debate? Uma Kothari (University of Manchester), Olivia U. Rutazibwa (University of Portsmouth) and Nivi Manchanda (Queen Mary University of London) are debating necessary challenges to assumptions underlying the field of Development Studies. The discussion is chaired by EADI President Henning Melber.
