Analysis of Methodologies for Producing Decolonized Geographies in the South

Abstract

Even in the post-colonial era, the enduring impact of colonial legacies on former colonies persists, not just in terms of historical facts but also through the continued application of Western methodology. There is a pressing necessity to formulate a technique that actively helps to the establishment of decolonized geographies in the Southern regions. This study used the method of literature review to examine the potential transformation of post-colonial feminist methodology into a pro-Southern methodology, with the aim of mitigating the discernible and imperceptible impact of Western influence. This study contends that the post-colonial feminist paradigm, when compared to its Western feminist counterpart, has the potential to mitigate the tendencies towards exclusivity and capitalization that are inherent in Western capitalism. In an effort to present a full understanding of post-colonial feminist methodology, this study ultimately acknowledges several limits pertaining to its practical implementation.
