Indigenous and Western Epistemologies in History Education

Tensions – Possibilities – Solutions, ed. by Christoph Kühberger/Bongani Shabangu.

Every culture has a history. Different modes of dealing with the past and finding this knowledge offer different historical epistemologies and approaches to history. A dominant concept in the world – imposed by colonialism – is the Western idea of “history”, but we find a wide range of other autonomous concepts like the Hawaiian “mo’olelo oʻokūʻauhau”, the Zulu “Umlando” or the Lakȟóta “waníyetu wówapi”.
