Both neo-liberal and Third Way politicians and pundits have come to
accept globalisation as the key determinant of social and political
organization. Consequently, they have confused government's role in
the liberal democratic state with that of the globalised
corporation. The result has been a discursive closure about what
counts as human flourishing, and about the nature of the
educational provision which best serves such flourishing, which is
co-terminous with economic success. This book offers both a
challenge to such an equivalence, and an understanding of the
dispositions and practices that are necessary for education to
sustain a robust and invigorating openness in, and for, democracy.
From an oblique and whimsical perspective, Betwixt and Between
renovates a range of playful and interesting metaphors rooted in
experiences and encounters with and at the limen, or threshold. In
doing so it weaves through laughter, trickster, poetry, and
religion.
