Direct linkJennifer Ng – Anthropology & Education Quarterly, 2025
Researchers have increasingly understood their positionality should be actively considered. However, these considerations usually focus on select characteristics, treat "identity" as a fixed construct, and are limited to discussions of research methodology. Returning to fieldnotes from one community that has long exemplified the…

Joseph Paul Ferguson – Learning: Research and Practice, 2024
I draw on the work of Bernard Stiegler and Charles Peirce to propose that "negentropic education" is education for "deproletarianizing" society through embracing the possibility of singularities, so we once again know how to live, make and do, and to theorize. We need to pay deep attention to our surroundings and to value our…

Wildlife-human relations in the United States are predominantly influenced by Euro-American sociocultural dynamics and (neo)colonial legacies. Humans dominate nonhuman animals through violence, suffering, and death. Wildlife management as a practice is becoming increasingly criticized. Disagreement emerges from epistemological and ontological…

Misiaszek, Greg William – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2023
This article delves into ecopedagogy, grounded in the work of the Brazilian pedagogue Paulo Freire on popular education and critical pedagogies, to teach students to critically deconstruct the subjectivity and transformability of our world (all humans, human populations) with the rest of Earth (i.e., rest of Nature). As Friere emphasized humans'…

Lew Zipin – Educational Philosophy and Theory, 2025
Philosophical anthropologies (PAs) -- ontological assumptions about human species-nature -- have long faced Foucauldian post-structural rejection of their value and legitimacy in explaining sociological problematics. In this article I endorse Bourdieu's resistance to a post-PA momentum, arguing that PAs need assuming in sociological research. In…

Mathew Barnard – Educational Review, 2025
This paper aims to make a theoretical contribution to the field of student activism in relation to the school. In an age marked by ecological, economic and technological change, and where certainties based on Humanism and anthropocentricism continue to be eroded, this paper explores possibilities for reintegrating the school as meaningful to the…

Cuevas-Parra, Patricio – Global Studies of Childhood, 2023
This article explores how privileges, identities and worldviews influence every stage of childhood research processes. By using the 'windows and mirrors' and 'the danger of the single story' metaphors, I seek to deconstruct reflexivity and positionality in order to include different lenses of analysis for exploring how power and privileges inform…

Flanagan, Ruth – Journal of Religious Education, 2023
Divergence is not a new phenomenon in RE in England and Wales. A diverse range of aims and approaches have been promoted since RE provision became compulsory in 1944. Approaches include the phenomenological, interpretative, and dialogic with current debates centring around the benefits and challenges of a 'worldviews approach'. There have been a…

Michalinos Zembylas – Comparative Education, 2024
This conceptual paper aims to discuss how to address the dangers emerging from scholars' proclamations of positionality and identity in debates on decolonisation in comparative education. The approach proposed engages with two ideas that were central to the work of French philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy and were further developed by Cameroonian…

Mokhachane, Mantoa; George, Ann; Wyatt, Tasha; Kuper, Ayelet; Green-Thompson, Lionel – Advances in Health Sciences Education, 2023
The under-representation of minoritized or previously oppressed groups in research challenges the current universal understanding of professional identity formation (PIF). To date, there has been no recognition of an African influence on PIF, which is crucial for understanding this phenomenon in places like South Africa, a society in which the…

Carlos Alberto Torres – Globalisation, Societies and Education, 2024
The tone of this article is biographical and theoretical. Biographical, insofar as it concerns the author and his circumstances while also serving as a testimonial, probably partial and idiosyncratic, of the successes experienced by an entire generation of Argentineans in Diaspora. Although biographical, this is also a theoretical text that…

Al Karim Datoo; Alexis Stones – Journal of Beliefs & Values, 2024
This article proposes the notion of 'worldliness' as a necessary companion to the Religion and Worldviews curriculum. We posit that an understanding of 'worldliness', grounded in empirical research, in which the individual negotiates commitments to one's home (filial) and host (affilial) communities, is pedagogically relevant and heuristically…

Advocacy for social justice is a core duty of the social work profession. Social injustice, oppression, and marginalization in the United States demand that social workers critically evaluate and address systemic oppression, in the profession, society, and social work education. This study sought to explore the attitudes of social work students in…
