Learning Whiteness - Education and the Settler Colonial State (Hardcover): Arathi Sriprakash, Sophie Rudolph, Jessica Gerrard Learning Whiteness - Education and the Settler Colonial State (Hardcover)

Whiteness is not innate - it is learned. The systems of white domination that prevail across the world are not pregiven or natural. Rather, they are forged and sustained in social and political life. Learning Whiteness examines the material conditions, knowledge politics and complex feelings that create and relay systems of racial domination. Focusing on Australia, the authors demonstrate how whiteness is fundamentally an educational project - taught within education institutions and through public discourse - in active service of the settler colonial state. To see whiteness as learned is to recognise that it can be confronted. This book invites readers to reckon with past and present politics of education in order to imagine a future thoroughly divested from racism.

Migration, Borders and Education - International Sociological Inquiries (Paperback): Jessica Gerrard, Arathi Sriprakash Migration, Borders and Education - International Sociological Inquiries (Paperback)
Jessica Gerrard, Arathi Sriprakash
R1,316 Discovery Miles 13 160 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

This book brings together high-quality international research which examines how migration and borders are experienced in education. It presents new conceptualisations of education as a 'border regime', demonstrating the need for closer attention to 'border thinking', and diasporic and transnational analyses in education. We live in a time in which borders - material and political - are being reasserted with profound social consequences. Both the containment and global movement of people dominate political concerns and inevitably impact educational systems and practices. Providing a global outlook, the chapters in this book present in-depth sociological analyses of the ways in which borders are constituted and reconstituted through educational practice from a diverse range of national contexts. Key issues taken up by authors include: immigration status and educational inequalities; educational inclusion and internal migration; 'curricula nationalism' and global citizenship; education and labour; the educational experiences of refugees and the politics of refugee education; student migration and adult education; and nationalism, colonialism and racialization. This book was originally published as a special issue of International Studies in Sociology of Education.

The 'Poor Child' - The cultural politics of education, development and childhood (Paperback): Lucy Hopkins, Arathi... The 'Poor Child' - The cultural politics of education, development and childhood (Paperback)
Lucy Hopkins, Arathi Sriprakash
R1,463 Discovery Miles 14 630 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Why are development discourses of the 'poor child' in need of radical revision? What are the theoretical and methodological challenges and possibilities for ethical understandings of childhoods and poverty? The 'poor child' at the centre of development activity is often measured against and reformed towards an idealised and globalised child subject. This book examines why such normative discourses of childhood are in need of radical revision and explores how development research and practice can work to 'unsettle' the global child. It engages the cultural politics of childhood - a politics of equality, identity and representation - as a methodological and theoretical orientation to rethink the relationships between education, development, and poverty in children's lives. This book brings multiple disciplinary perspectives, including cultural studies, sociology, and film studies, into conversation with development studies and development education in order to provide new ways of approaching and conceptualising the 'poor child'. The researchers draw on a range of methodological frames - such as poststructuralist discourse analysis, arts based research, ethnographic studies and textual analysis - to unpack the hidden assumptions about children within development discourses. Chapters in this book reveal the diverse ways in which the notion of childhood is understood and enacted in a range of national settings, including Kenya, India, Mexico and the United Kingdom. They explore the complex constitution of children's lives through cultural, policy, and educational practices. The volume's focus on children's experiences and voices shows how children themselves are challenging the representation and material conditions of their lives. The 'Poor Child' will be of particular interest to postgraduate students and scholars working in the fields of childhood studies, international and comparative education, and development studies.
