To preserve the binary orthodoxy and fundamental beliefs in one modernity, one rationality and their universality, Western civilisation constituted itself claiming ownership of Greek thought and the local Western version of Christianity, by the destitution of the differences, and the accusation that differences and dissenting positions to Western orthodoxy were and are irrational, anti-modern and grounded in local fundamentalism. The celebrations of modernity and postmodernity are both conservative in intent to manage the future. Decoloniality doesn’t propose a return to a pristine past, but the reconstitutions and restitutions in the present (and towards the future) of destitutions in the name of modernity, rationality and emancipated thinking. Sai Deepak builds a strong decolonial argument disengaging from modern Western orthodoxy of the either/or, and proposes instead the decolonial logic of neither/nor. He does it by means of a detailed and careful reconstitution of knowledges, ways of knowing and patterns of sensing that were destituted and continue to be so in the name of progress, democracy and economic development, all under the mantra that more is better. Such reconstitutions require dwelling and thinking in the borders between grounded local languages, memories and praxis of living that cannot be supplanted by languages, memories and praxis of living grounded in foreign local histories. Such is the argument that Sai Deepak builds, and invites us to think and work decolonially towards pluriversal futures. —Walter D.
