It will become both an important resource for scholars and an unparalleled introduction to the entire discipline.

Download or read book Global Citizenship Education written by Abdeljalil Akkari and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-08-18 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book takes a critical and international perspective to the mainstreaming of the Global Citizenship Concept and analyses the key issues regarding global citizenship education across the world. In that respect, it addresses a pressing need to provide further conceptual input and to open global citizenship agendas to diversity and indigeneity. Social and political changes brought by globalisation, migration and technological advances of the 21st century have generated a rise in the popularity of the utopian and philosophical idea of global citizenship. In response to the challenges of today’s globalised and interconnected world, such as inequality, human rights violations and poverty, global citizenship education has been invoked as a means of preparing youth for an inclusive and sustainable world. In recent years, the development of global citizenship education and the building of students’ global citizenship competencies have become a focal point in global agendas for education, international educational assessments and international organisations. However, the concept of global citizenship education still remains highly contested and subject to multiple interpretations, and its operationalisation in national educational policies proves to be challenging. This volume aims to contribute to the debate, question the relevancy of global citizenship education’s policy objectives and to enhance understanding of local perspectives, ideologies, conceptions and issues related to citizenship education on a local, national and global level. To this end, the book provides a comprehensive and geographically based overview of the challenges citizenship education faces in a rapidly changing global world through the lens of diversity and inclusiveness.

Download or read book Discourses from Latin America and the Caribbean written by Eleonora Esposito and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-13 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection brings together the latest research on discourse and society in Latin America and Caribbean in one volume. Employing cross-cutting approaches to current political, institutional and media discourses, it bridges existing theoretical and analytical gaps between the socio-political macro issues and the micro aspects of linguistic analysis to provide fresh insights that deconstruct the complex socio-political power dynamics in Latin America and the Caribbean. Across eight chapters this volume explores the regions’ thorny relationship with their complex histories of colonialism and slavery as well as the ongoing, multifaceted constructions of hegemonic and counter-hegemonic identities at the individual, regional and national levels. In doing so, it demonstrates the unique and rich particularities of these regions and why it is that they challenge many conventional dogmas and methods across the Social Sciences. This book will be of particular interest to scholars working in Discourse Studies, Sociology, Politics, Anthropology and Latin American and Caribbean Studies.

Download or read book Voices of Feminist Liberation written by Emily Leah Silverman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-10-14 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Voices of Feminist Liberation' brings together a wide range of scholars to explore the work of Rosemary Radford Ruether, one of the most influential feminist and liberation theologians of our time. Ruether's extraordinary and ground-breaking thinking has shaped debates across liberation theology, feminism and eco-feminism, queer theology, social justice and inter-religious dialogue. At the same time, her commitment to practice and agency has influenced sites of local resistance around the world as well as on globalised strategies for ecological sustainability and justice. 'Voices of Feminist Liberation' examines the potential of Ruether's thinking to mobilize critical theology, social theory and cultural practice. The scholars gathered here present their personal engagements with Ruether's thinking and teaching. The book will be invaluable to scholars, policy-makers, and activists seeking to understand how colonial and patriarchal oppression in the name of religion can be confronted and defeated.

Download or read book Pensar la interculturalidad una invitaci n desde Abya Yala Am rica Latina written by Cruz Rodríguez, Edwin and published by Editorial Abya - Yala. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El libro concluye con una tesis llamativa: el no-teísmo viene a se el último paso, la estación de términos hacia la que la historia religiosa -la occidental al menos- parece caminar: desde el politeísmo, el henoteísmo, el monoteísmo pasando por la ilustración europea y el conflicto cristianismo/ateísmo…para desembocar en el no-teísmo, como la resolución del conflicto y la superación de los malentendidos seculares entre el cristianismo y la modernidad. Los dos -cristianismo y ateísmo- tenían razón, la ración parcial de unas posiciones, que ahora, a la altura de estos tiempos, vemos que los dos deben rectificar. Ya la Gaudium et spes (19-22) modificó parcialmente la actitud oficial de la Iglesia católica hacia el ateísmo; Lenaers se atreve a decir que hay que ir todavía bastante más allá para terminar de realizar plenamente la reconciliación con la modernidad.

Download or read book La interculturalidad en cuesti n written by Fidel Tubino and published by Fondo Editorial de la PUCP. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reflexiones sobre los derechos humanos, la construcción de la ciudadanía y la lucha por el reconocimiento pleno y real de las diversidades culturales en las sociedades latinoamericanas. Los conflictos interculturales en el mundo actual se agudizan cada vez más. Entender que en dichos conflictos se confrontan no solo intereses económicos y políticos sino también formas de pensar, valorar y sentir el mundo es empezar a comprenderlos. La interculturalidad no es solo un problema, es también una posibilidad de convivencia dignificante basada en el reconocimiento de la diversidad. Así, las nociones de dignidad y de derechos humanos no son universales por naturaleza. Pero deben serlo. Y para ello deben interculturalizarse. De allí la necesidad de crear las condiciones subjetivas y objetivas que hagan posible un diálogo intercultural sobre los derechos individuales y colectivos en contextos asimétricos. Entender la construcción dialógica de la universalidad de los derechos humanos como una necesidad ética y social de envergadura nos conduce a reformular nuestra concepción de la ciudadanía. Esta se ejerce básicamente en los espacios de deliberación pública, lamentablemente hoy colonizados por el logocentrismo, la lengua y la cultura hegemónica. Descolonizar dichos espacios para hacerlos inclusivos de la diversidad es una tarea pendiente. Para ello son necesarias las "políticas interculturales de reconocimiento", siempre y cuando se articulen a políticas redistributivas y de representación política tanto afirmativas como transformativas. En ello consiste el interculturalismo como posibilidad.

Download or read book Education and Poverty written by Alfredo Gaete and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the effects of recent public policies for reducing educational inequalities? How do privatization and other market-based education measures influence schooling in poverty contexts and teacher training programs? In what ways, and to what extent, can these programs take responsibility for improving low-income students’ learning? How do ethnic and cultural differences relate to socioeconomic differences at school? This collection of essays serves to improve the reader’s understanding of the complex relations between education and poverty. While it does this mainly by delving into problems and challenges of the Chilean educational system, they are also currently of international concern. The chapters, authored by leading scholars in Chile and worldwide, present theoretical reflections on, and reports of, contemporary educational research on such issues as social equality, schooling in low socioeconomic sectors, and teacher education, among others. The book will be particularly helpful for scholars from different disciplines who work in education as well as for teacher educators, schoolteachers, and policy makers. More generally, it will be also of interest to anyone who wants to form justified, well-informed beliefs on the ways in which various educational and socioeconomic institutions and processes could, and do, affect each other.

Download or read book Recognizing Indigenous Languages written by Limerick and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What follows when state institutions name historically oppressed languages as official? What happens when bilingual education activists gain the right to coordinate schooling from upper-level state offices? The intercultural bilingual school system in Ecuador has been one of the most prominent examples of Indigenous education in Central and South America. Since its establishment in 1988, members of Ecuador's pueblos and nationalities have worked from state institutions to coordinate a second national school system that includes the teaching of Indigenous languages. Based on more than two years of ethnographic research in Ecuador's Ministry of Education, at international and national conferences, in workshops, in schools, and with families, Recognizing Indigenous Languages considers how state agents carry out linguistic and educational politics in eras of greater inclusivity and multiculturalism. This book shows how institutional advances for bilingual education and Indigenous languages have been premised on affirming the equality - and the equivalency - of the linguistic and cultural practices of members of Indigenous pueblos and nationalities with other Ecuadorians. Major responsibilities like serving as national state agents, crafting a standardized variety of Kichwa, and teaching Indigenous languages in schools provide vast authority, representation, and visibility for those languages and their speakers. However, the everyday work of directing a school system and making Kichwa a language of the state includes double binds that work against the very goals of autonomous schooling and getting people to speak and write Kichwa"--
