Decolonising method in the age of transdisciplinarity: a case for conversational thinking

Abstract

I will respond to two queries in this work. The first bothers on the possibility of having a single space in a transdisciplinary discourse. What will scholarship look like when we all come from our various vantage points? The second issue is a corollary of the first; will transcendence of disciplines be another ploy of coloniality to create a special breed that privileges one group over others? Overall, I argue that transdisciplinarity, as it stands, is inadequate since it silently promotes the exclusion of some methods. I will call for conversational thinking, which serves as a model for others to speak meaningfully and be heard.
