Abstract
How can tacit knowledge unique to a certain culture and not described in academic books - termed indigenous knowledge - be brought onto an equal footing with current dominant Westernised systems of knowledge? And how can 'cognitive justice' and 'restorative action' be brought to bear on policymaking in the public sphere? Ina van der Linde highlights aspects of this fundamental shift in thinking about development.-
