Western countries ‘benefited from an imperialism that placed their ideologies in a powerful and privileged position’

Universities should “decolonize” their business school curriculum, according to a senior administrator and professor at King’s College in London.

“Business schools in Western and European countries have benefited from an imperialism that placed their ideologies in a powerful and privileged position,” Professor Sally Everett wrote in an op-ed published by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business, a higher education accreditor.

“As more business schools strive to become diverse and inclusive, they should consider the very sources of knowledge they teach in their classrooms,” Everett wrote.

The College Fix reached out to Everett for further comment but she has not responded in the past weeks.
