More DescriptionOur age-old notions of knowledge have ceased to be meaningful in postnormal times. The chaos that accompanies our increasingly complex world requires us to see through 'the smog of ignorance,' and seek new ways of thinking and creating knowledge that promotes sustainability, diversity, and social justice. Emerging Epistemologies explores that changing nature of knowledge production and investigates how emerging epistemologies are transforming our preceptions of the present and the future. The essays examine digital landscapes, zombie disciplines, higher education etc, to argue that epistemology does not exist in a vacuum but is determined and embedded in the worldview and culture of society.
