Download or read book Intercultural Approaches to Education written by Abdeljalil Akkari and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book provides an analysis of contemporary societies and schools shaped by cultural diversity, globalization and migration. This diversity is necessarily reflected in education systems and requires the promotion of intercultural approaches able to improve learning processes and the quality of education. From an international and comparative perspective, this book first presents theoretical and conceptual foundations for seriously considering cultural diversity. The book also compares intercultural approaches and debates generated in countries as diverse as the United States, Canada, Brazil, Switzerland and France. For each national context, the book addresses both the historical roots of intercultural approaches and the concrete initiatives driven by educational policies for their implementation in schools and classrooms. Finally, the book presents discussions surrounding the treatment of linguistic or religious diversity in schools, the emergence of global citizenship education and the key role of teachers in intercultural approaches. This is an open access book.
Download or read book L cole et les enfants de l immigration written by Abdelmalek Sayad and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La 4e de couv. indique : "Connu pour ses travaux sur les immigrés, Abdelmalek Sayad s’est également intéressé à la place de leurs enfants dans l’école française. Écrits entre la fin des années 1970, à un moment où les enseignants voient arriver de nouveaux publics issus des regroupements familiaux, et la fin des années 1990, alors que la problématique de leur échec scolaire est devenue prégnante dans les débats publics, ces textes étaient restés jusqu’à présent inédits ou cantonnés à une diffusion confidentielle. Sayad saisit cette question dans sa genèse et montre comment les dispositifs et les pédagogies mis en œuvre pour réconcilier ces élèves avec l’école en valorisant ce que l’on suppose être « leur » culture engendrent des mécanismes de relégation dont les effets se révèlent désastreux. À célébrer la diversité en occultant le poids des facteurs sociaux, nombre d’enseignants en sont venus à oublier que la mission première de l’école républicaine est bien d’inclure ces enfants dans la société à laquelle la trajectoire migratoire de leurs parents les destine, et non de maintenir à toute force un lien avec leurs « origines » ? au risque de les y enfermer. Présentés par Benoit Falaize (Université de Cergy) et Smaïn Laacher (Université de Strasbourg), ces textes révèlent avec une remarquable acuité les malentendus d’une politique scolaire qu’il est urgent, à partir de Sayad, de repenser. Sociologue, directeur de recherche au CNRS, Abdelmalek Sayad (1933-1998) est notamment l’auteur de La Double Absence (Seuil, 1999) et, avec Pierre Bourdieu, du Déracinement (Minuit, 1977)."
Download or read book Radicalized Loyalties written by Fabien Truong and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is widespread concern today about the “radicalization” of young muslim men, and the deprived areas of Western cities are believed to have become breeding grounds of home-grown extremism. But how do young Muslims growing up in the cities of the West really live? This book takes us beyond the rhetoric and into the housing estates on the outskirts of Paris to meet Adama, Radouane, Hassan, Tarik, Marley, and a shadowy figure whose name suddenly and brutally became known to the world at the time of the Charlie Hebdo shootings: Amédy Coulibaly. Seeing Amédy through the eyes of close friends and other young Muslim men in the neighbourhoods where they grew up, Fabien Truong uncovers a network of competing loyalties and maps the road these youths take to resolve the conflicts they face: becoming Muslim. For these young men, Islam stands, often alone, as a resource, a gateway – as if it were the last route to “escape” without betrayal and to “fight” in a meaningful and noble way. Becoming Muslim does not necessarily lead to the radicalized “other”. It is more like a long-distance race, a powerful reconversion of the self that allows for introspection and change. But it can also lead to a belligerent presentation of the self that transforms a dead-end into a call to arms.

Download or read book The Origins of Postcommunist Elites written by Gil Eyal and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is it that Czechoslovakia's separation into two countries in 1993 was accomplished so peacefully -- especially when compared with the experiences of its neighbors Russia and Yugoslavia? This book provides a sociological answer to this question -- and an empirical explanation for the breakup of Czechoslovakia -- by tracing the political processes begun in the Prague Spring of 1968. Gil Eyal's main argument is that Czechoslovakia's breakup was caused by a struggle between two fractions of what sociologists call the "new class," which consisted primarily of intellectuals and technocrats. Focusing on the process of polarization that created these two distinct political elites, Eyal shows how, in response to the events of the ill-fated Prague Spring, Czech and Slovak members of the "new class" embarked on divergent paths and developed radically different, even opposed, identities, worldviews, and interests. Unlike most accounts of postcommunist nationalist conflict, this book suggests that what bound together each of these fractions -- and what differentiated each from the other -- were not national identities and nationalist sentiments per se, but their distinctive visions of the social role of intellectuals.
