高等教育课程的非殖民化是一个激进的变革过程，它质疑围绕学术“知识”生产的持久的欧洲中心主义和种族主义叙事。我们的主要论点是，对政治学生来说，理解通过定量数据施加的权威和等级是至关重要的。在本文中，我们表明(1)定量方法和数据素养可以成为挑战压迫结构的明确工具，(2)有必要将非殖民原则应用于定量方法的教学，优先考虑历史背景化和反种族主义批评统计放大现有微观和宏观权力关系的方式。为了解释这是如何做到的，我们首先对高等教育中的“非殖民化状态”进行评论，它与政治分支学科的相关性，以及它在英国定量教学中的应用。然后，我们为定量方法教学的非殖民化方法提出了一些指导原则，并从政治社会学、国际政治经济学和国际发展中提出了实质性的例子。这些建议和例子表明，当与定量方法一起使用时，非殖民镜头如何促进政治学本科生的批判性和解放性思维。
Decolonisation of the curriculum in higher education is a radical, transformative process of change that interrogates the enduring Eurocentric and racist narratives surrounding the production of academic ‘knowledge’. Our key argument is that it is essential for students of politics to understand the authorities and hierarchies exerted through quantitative data. In this article, we show that (1) quantitative methods and data literacy can be an explicit tool in the endeavour to challenge structures of oppression, and (2) there is a need to apply decolonial principles to the teaching of quantitative methods, prioritising the historical contextualisation and anti-racist critique of the ways in which statistics amplify existing micro and macro power relations. To explain how this can be done, we begin with a commentary on the ‘state of decolonisation’ in higher education, its relevance to the subdisciplines of politics, and its application to quantitative teaching in the United Kingdom. We then suggest some guiding principles for a decolonial approach to quantitative methods teaching and present substantive examples from political sociology, international political economy, and international development. These suggestions and examples show how a decolonial lens advances critical and emancipatory thinking in undergraduate students of politics when it is used with quantitative methods.
