Jacques Derrida and Jean-Francois Lyotard constitute two of the
most notable figures of poststructuralist thought and philosophy of
the postmodern period. Both worked to reveal instabilities and
uncertainty, and to destabilise assumptions and self-evident
traditions for the purposes of reflection, creativity and
innovative thinking. This significant volume explores the key
concepts central to the work of Derrida and Lyotard in relation to
educational leadership, and reveals how these ideas challenge
existing structures, hierarchies and models of thought. Derrida's
notions of difference and deconstruction, and Lyotard's concepts of
language games, performativity and the differend, are specifically
used to inform provocative and insightful critiques of the
positivist assumptions and knowledge construction in the field of
educational leadership. The book provides concrete examples of the
application of theories to policy, literature and empirical data,
and identifies ideas which continue to impact contemporary
practices of educational leadership and management. Included in the
book: - why bring Derrida and Lyotard to ELMA? - a Lyotardian
politics of the standards movement in educational leadership -
managing performance - witnessing deconstructions of the
leader-follower binary in ELMA - limitations and critiques of
Derrida and Lyotard. This important volume in the series will be of
value to all those working and researching in the field of
Educational Leadership, Management and Administration.
