Eve Tuck and K. Wayne Yang develop the concept of “refusal” as an essential methodology for decolonizing social sciences, that I suggest provides an opening for white scholars to contribute to decolonizing projects. In this article, I reflect on my attempts at engaging with my colonial complicities, as a white European woman doing research on comprehensive sexuality education and young people's agency in Tanzania. I present this discussion as a series of refusals interspersed throughout more conceptual discussions on how feminist and social psychological theorizing, and post-/de-colonial problematizations of it, have advanced my understanding of agency, and shaped my approach and research design. In drawing these literatures together, along with my own practical efforts at applying them, I attempt to mark out, but also problematize, potentials for white people's anti-colonial praxis in working across borders. I conclude with some broad thoughts on the particularities of refusals connected to whiteness and the neoliberal university.

通过拒绝跨境研究机构来解释殖民同谋

Eve Tuck 和 K. Wayne Yang 将“拒绝”的概念发展为非殖民化社会科学的基本方法,我认为这为白人学者为非殖民化项目做出贡献提供了一个机会。在这篇文章中,我回顾了我作为一名在坦桑尼亚从事综合性教育和年轻人机构研究的欧洲白人女性参与殖民同谋的尝试。我将这次讨论作为一系列拒绝散布在关于女权主义和社会心理学理论化以及后/去殖民化问题化如何促进我对代理的理解,并塑造了我的方法和研究设计的更多概念性讨论中。在将这些文献汇总在一起时,连同我自己在应用它们方面的实际努力,我试图标出,但也提出问题,白人在跨境工作中的反殖民实践的潜力。最后,我对与白人和新自由主义大学有关的拒绝的特殊性进行了一些广泛的思考。
