      abstract = {The essays in this groundbreaking collection are  profoundly aspirational and a testament to the beautiful  hard-won labor of deep thinking and commitment to  intellectual theory and communions of praxis. Professor  Emeritus D. Soyini Madison, Northwestern University, USA. A  revolutionary book that disrupts the dominance of  Eurocentric epistemology by demonstrating the power and  value of alternative modes of organizing in the Global  South. Professor Stella Nkomo, University of Pretoria,  South Africa This edited volume presents organizations of  struggle by disenfranchised members in the global South and  brings forth a collective of knowledge to decolonize  organizational theory. The essays in this volume critique  and connect meanings of organizations in relation to  neoliberalism, coloniality, and social justice. More  specifically, scholars engage with ideas of resistance such  as invisible histories in management theory, hybrid  collective action, self-determination and indigenous  sovereignty, and decolonizing institutions. The chapters  also cover a wide range of locations including feminist  movements in Latin America, the struggles of Palestinians  in self-exile to connect with their homeland, and  reproductive labor in Sri Lanka to the decolonial potential  of Black Lives Matter in the US and insights into  organizing resistance in parts of Asia and Africa. For  scholars and policymakers, this book presents emancipatory  essays that interrogate the cultural, socio-political, and  historical issues pertaining to organizations. Mahuya Pal  is Associate Professor in the Department of Communication  at the University of South Florida. Her critical  organizational communication research explores decolonial  politics anchored in organizing of resistance by  underprivileged communities against institutional power.  Jolle Cruz is Associate Professor in the Department of  Communication at the University of Colorado Boulder, USA.  Her research focuses on intersections of alternative  organizing (e.g., grassroots, community-based organizing,  and social movements) and culture. Debashish Munshi is  Professor of Management Communication at the University of  Waikato, Aotearoa New Zealand. His research explores  alternative cultural (especially Indigenous, feminist, and  postcolonial) models of building relationships with and  among marginalized publics. .},
