The ongoing neoliberalisation of education is complex, varied and
relentless. It involves increasingly diverse material and
structural changes to curriculum, pedagogy and assessment and at
the same time transforms how we are made up as educational
subjects. It rearticulates what it means to be educated. This
collection brings together creative and unanticipated examples of
the adoption and adaptation of neoliberal practice, both collective
and individual. These examples not only demonstrate the
insidiousness of neoliberal reform but also suggest that its
trajectory is uncertain and unfixed. The intention is that these
examples might embolden education scholars and practitioners to
think differently about education. This book is shaped by a reading
of the processes of the neoliberalisation of education as a
dispositif. This heterogeneous dispositif encompasses and spans an
uneven, miscellaneous and evolving network of educational regimes
of knowledge, practice and subjectivities, as well as artifacts and
non-human actants. The papers included address different aspects or
points within this complex arrangement at different levels and in
different sectors of education. They have been chosen to illustrate
the evolving and multi-faceted penetration of market thinking and
practice in education and also points of deflection and dissent.
They also offer coverage of some of the uneven geography of
neoliberalisation. They consider the potential for the production
of subjectivities to provide the ‘wriggle’ room that can exist
to refuse or subvert neoliberal identities. This book will have
appeal across the social sciences and specifically to those working
in education. The chapters included here were originally published
in various Taylor & Francis journals.
