What is it about?
This chapter focuses on a detailed examination of the interrelation between colonisation and decolonisation. There is emphasis within this examination on how decolonisation has been theorised within the various contexts in which coloniality has been a logic of domination.

Why is it important?
It is noted that the long survival of the logics and praxes of ongoing colonialism is due, in part, to its ability to co-opt the other, adapt itself and evolve when necessary. The chapter recognises and argues for the need for strategies for decolonisation to account for this, especially in relation to such work done in law schools in universities.
Perspectives
In this chapter I use a table-analogy to explain how the different contexts of decolonisation relate to colonialism.
