Dr. Paul Emiljanowicz, who teaches ARTSSCI 3GJ3 / Global Justice Inquiry, is the Managing Director of Participedia and a sessional lecturer in the Political Science department at Wilfrid Laurier University. He is also an active member of the Tshepo Institute for the Study of Contemporary Africa and the Global Development Section of the International Studies Association, as well as a board member for Demo.Reset: Deliberation in the Global South (now in Phase 2.0).

Dr. Emiljanowicz’s work is published in Postcolonial Studies, Third World Quarterly, Interventions, The Australasian Parliamentary Review, Small Axe, Democratization, Routledge, SAGE, and Athabasca University Press (forthcoming), as well as in popular media outlets such as Africa is a Country and The Conversation. He is also completing a major manuscript under a University Press and is a co-organizer of a special issue on Democratic Pedagogies in the Journal of Curriculum and Pedagogy. In addition, he is a co-founder and Editor in Chief of a newly launching peer-reviewed journal – the Democracies – with Amsterdam University Press.

His research is focused on contributing to reconceptualizing development, the state, and democracy by engaging with the ideas, experiences, and peoples who have traditionally been excluded from the canon(s). From a global, relational and decolonial perspective, his work explores the social, political, and economic theories, ideas, networks and plans for the future, which emerge in struggle and in the confrontation between peoples and injustice broadly defined.
