This book consists of stories of struggles in science education
presented by a network of science educators working in Australia,
Brazil, Canada, Britain, and the United States. The common goal of
these educators is to produce more socially/ecologically just
models and practices of science education. The book considers and
reworks the key-terms of current social justice: agency, realism,
justice, and power. Its first section explores re-inhabiting
science in the quest for more just worlds including
reterritorializing science within emergent theories of critical
realism, engaging citizens activists with corporate science, and
challenging neoliberalism and the forces that organize (structure)
knowledge. The second section redefines praxis of science education
itself through nuanced explorations of agency, decolonialism, and
justice in ways that emphasize complexity, hybridity, ambivalence,
and contradiction. The stories of this international group capture
individual and collective efforts, motivated by a persistent sense
that science and science education matter for questions of justice.
