Educational Leadership in Becoming reconsiders educational
leadership in its current forms, and presents a more plausible form
of educational leadership to contend with the complexities
currently found in universities and schools. Much of the literature
in vogue concerning educational leadership ranges from
transactional to transformative representations of the concept in
relation to educational management and policy, curriculum inquiry
and pedagogical action. The primary aim of this book is to revisit
some of the dominant understandings of educational leadership and
to offer an extended view of the practice along the lines of
potentiality and becoming. Davids and Waghid argue that all current
forms of educational leadership are insufficient to enact
responsible human action, particularly when it comes to addressing
the combined issues of globalisation and equitable redress and
transformation, whether in relation to leading schools or
universities. The primary objective of the book is to draw on the
Agambian notion of becoming in order to show that an educational
leadership in becoming is better placed to not only address the
myriad challenges besetting education, but to also enhance the
potential of leadership in action. The book addresses an
international audience by analysing conceptions of transformative
leadership and should be read by anyone who is interested in
education and educational leadership, as well as the impact of
neoliberal agendas on education and society. It should also appeal
to those interested in the philosophy of education.
