Book After the Disciplines

Download or read book After the Disciplines written by Michael Peters and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1999-08-30 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the late 1960s, both internationally and locally, we have witnessed the growth of subject areas outside the traditional liberal arts curriculum and disciplinary structure of the university curriculum: Black Studies (or Indigenous Studies), Feminist or Women's Studies, Critical Legal Studies, Film & Media Studies, Gay Studies, and Cultural Studies are some of the most popular. The principles underlying a global neo-liberalism and managerialism were responsible for restructuring universities during the 1980s. Some thought that such developments imperiled the humanities, while others believed that the context of globalization and the development of new communications technologies offered new hope for both interdisciplinary work and the emergence of a critical approach. The book asks the following broad questions: What are the underlying historical, epistemological, and political reasons for the emergence of cultural studies? What do these developments imply for the traditional liberal arts curriculum and the traditional discipline-based university? To what extent does the emergence of cultural studies displace or dislocate traditional disciplines? What forms of resistance has cultural studies encountered, and why? To what extent does the emergence of cultural studies reflect a changing mission of the university and changing relations between the university and the wider society? What is the future of cultural studies?

Book Collaborative Research Stories

Download or read book Collaborative Research Stories written by Russell Bishop and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book of stories. They are the stories of a group of educational researchers who have addressed the importance of devolving power and control in research and who consider such an approach to be important in order to promote the self-determination (tino Rangatiratanga) of the research participants. The stories tell how the researchers have accepted the challenge of positioning themselves within the discursive practice that is Kaupapa Maori. As a result, the stories examine how such positionings challenge what constitutes a methodological and theoretical framework for research within Maori contexts in Aotearoa-New Zealand today.
