Kitching, Karl; Gholami, Reza – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2023
This paper calls for systematic inquiry into the relationship between secular governing formations and education inequalities. We present a thematic analysis of existing scholarship on secularism, the secular and post-secular in education. Our review of 184 texts reveals a frequent implicit or explicit reliance on the liberal state to address…

Ramos, Fabiane – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2021
This paper is about theorising with seven refugee-background youth, who have successfully completed their secondary studies in Australia. Using conversations-as-method, the focus is on how research partners theorise academic success, and on the reading I developed in response to their reflections. Inspired by the commonalities in Lugones' and…

Black, Alison L.; Crimmins, Gail; Henderson, Linda – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2019
This paper provides a rationale for understanding personal/professional identities to support personal/professional learning and positioning in academe and higher education. It explains the importance of women writing and speaking out the stories of their lives (everyday and academic), having their voices heard and responded to, and using embodied…

Drawing on two research projects that include Vietnamese overseas-educated academics and local school teachers, the paper discusses these educators' reflections on citizenship, citizenship education and Vietnam's higher education reform in the context of globalization.

Li, Minglin – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2017
The scale of English language education in China is astounding, but recent research has shown that the latest national English education policy for Chinese schools has not been implemented successfully due to various reasons. One reason given for the lack of success is the impracticability of the top-down policy itself excluding teachers'…

Gandin, Luis Armando – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2015
This article focuses on the contribution of Stuart Hall to the study of educational policy and reform, using the experience of the Citizen School initiative in Porto Alegre, Brazil as a concrete example. This experience was a participatory educational reform implemented during the 16 years of the Workers' Party tenure in Porto Alegre's municipal…

Gillborn, David – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2013
Drawing on Critical Race Theory (CRT) and illustrating with examples from the English system, the paper addresses the hidden racist dimension to contemporary education reforms and argues that this is a predictable and recurrent theme at times of economic crisis. Derrick Bell's concept of "interest-convergence" argues that moments of…

Chadderton, Charlotte; Colley, Helen – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2012
Disadvantaged young people often inhabit a dangerous space: excluded from education, training and employment markets; constructed as disposable; and cast out as "human waste" (Bauman, 2004). There are many macro-level analyses of this catastrophic trend, but this article provides insights into some of the everyday educational…

Hursh, David W.; Henderson, Joseph A. – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2011
Neoliberal policies, in spite of their considerable damage to economic equality, the environment, and education, remain dominant. In this paper, we suggest that neoliberalism has remained dominant in part because the power elite who benefit from the policies have gained control over both public debate and policy-making. By dominating the discourse…

De Lissovoy, Noah – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2010
An ethical and democratic globality, and the kind of education that would contribute to it, are only possible in the context of a recognition of the relations of power that have shaped history, and in particular the political, cultural, economic, and epistemological processes of domination that have characterized colonialism and Eurocentrism.…

Saltmarsh, Sue – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2009
This paper considers how young children in early childhood education draw on popular texts and consumer goods in their constitution of subjectivities and social relations. The paper draws on poststructuralist theories of subjectivity, agency, consumption and power, to explore how performative practices of consumption figure in the constitution of…

David, Miriam; Clegg, Sue – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2008
In this paper, in keeping with developing feminist methodologies, we reflect on how we became second-wave feminists in the 1970s. We consider how the theories and practices that we were involved in have been changed as the global socio-political context has transformed higher education practices. Second-wave feminism originated as a political…

Cook-Sather, Alison – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2007
Early 21st-century cautions regarding student voice work in educational research echo in striking ways some poststructuralist feminist critiques of critical pedagogies that proliferated in the early 1990s. Both warn against totalizing, undifferentiated notions of and responses to oppressed, marginalized, and/or disempowered individuals or groups…

Arnot, Madeleine; Reay, Diane – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2007
The concept of student voice is problematic. This paper considers two different traditions which theorise the notion of voice. The first is located within critical sociological studies of youth identity, drawing upon the notion of the often silenced voices of the marginalised, "Othered" or subordinated as a means of exposing oppressive…

Koehne, Norma – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2006
This paper looks at the power of discourses to speak subjects into being, particularly the power that academic and other discourses have had to develop subject positions for international students and the ways in which students have accepted and rejected these ways of talking about them. The paper contrasts these ways of speaking with what the…
