We consider the structural transformations that are being enacted as a result of the proliferation of (Christian) public charters and other privatization efforts as well as reactionary undertakings that have purposefully targeted the daily life of schools from administration to curriculum and pedagogy since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic (for example: disruptions at school board meetings, threatening school officials, anti-LGBTQ and anti-anti-racism hysteria, among others). We put these minoritarian interjections in conversation with Elias Canetti's \"crowd of the dead” and consider the effects of this political activity in producing civic and social death while seeking to destabilize public institutions and institutional arrangements that should safeguard against the manufacturing of (civic) death.

Blaisdell","doi":"10.1080/10714413.2023.2193131","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10714413.2023.2193131","url":null,"abstract":"Jesse Bazzul (2023) delivers An Intense Calling: How Ethics is Essential to Education during a global pandemic against an escalating climate crisis. The book is timely, given its arrival when such circumstances undeniably demand attention to ethics. Bazzul situates the writing of the book during a time of movement while relocating from Ireland back home to the Canadian prairies in the traditional territories of the nêhiyawak, Anih sin ap ek, Dakota, Lakota, and Nakoda, and the homeland of the M etis. Like the transient conditions of its creation, the book has an ephemeral quality, pulling readers back and forth from at-times nightmarish realizations of reality to daydreamy ponderings of more ethical and pleasurable futures. The book is organized into two sections. The first, “Ethics and Subjectivity”, explores subjectivity, ethics, and education, inviting the reader to consider how ethics is entangled with politics and central to education. The second, “Ethics as Ontological Exploration”, pulls ethics beyond human subjectivity and proposes solidarity with nonhumans. The book encourages difference and possibility, asking that readers contemplate ways education is responsible for nurturing such difference and possibility. The thesis of the book is that the essence of education is ethics. In An Intense Calling, Bazzul illustrates a utopia where “education is an intensive ethical journey that moves someone from one way of being to another. Knowledge acquisition is always secondary” in the future he calls readers toward (p. 5). In the book’s preface, Bazzul does some important positioning: a positioning in both place and movement, and in intersecting positions of privilege. He offers the reader a consciously simplistic image of two figures: one which disregards social conventions and traditional mores, and one that holds them in too high of a regard. In a sophisticated move, he demonstrates his allegiance to the former by rejecting rigid scholastic semantics, beginning sentences with “and,” and filling the pages with fragmented phrases that mimic speech rather than normative academic texts. Bazzul’s warm, conversational approach is fitting for a book asking readers to question traditional mores and recognize the danger of taken-for-granted traditions. His metaphor of a figure wearing pajamas to dinner parties, sitting straight-faced, and asking guests why they insist on making things uncomfortable is an important setting scene. Bazzul takes the reader through a dizzying amount of educational theories, leaving nothing unquestioned, but with the relaxed, slightly cynical tone of someone who has been sitting with these theories for a long time—perhaps on a couch, in pajamas, at a dinner party. Everyone is welcome to this discussion, and he immediately dismisses selfimportant posturing, leaving no room for pretentiousness. He asks that more space be made for imagination, creativity, trans-discipline, and the arts in education. The book is whimsical and th","PeriodicalId":45129,"journal":{"name":"Review of Education Pedagogy and Cultural Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83728049","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this reading only occurs subtextually. By using a contextual cultural studies approach, which reads film as embedded in cultural politics, and a “monsterology,” which captures capital as a specter within the film, this essay will serve as an intervention surrounding discourse on The Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials. In doing so, this analysis will make the case that films targeted at students and young adults are important sites of pedagogy that contribute to an understanding of how capital alienates us from ourselves, each other, and social democratic structures.","PeriodicalId":45129,"journal":{"name":"Review of Education Pedagogy and Cultural Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72503132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

That discourse, however, has mostly been characterized by an a-historic, unproblematized, and under-theorized notion of “border.” Our experiences as curriculum scholars and teacher educators have illustrated that a similar stance about the border has taken place in public education. We begin from the assumption that the border is very real, but it is socially constructed and maintained, and impacts different groups differently. Borders are thus not only geographic markers but political, cultural, economic, and psychological disruptors of places and those living in them. In order to better understand these complex dimensions, we engage in an extended analysis of two cases, the U.S.-Mexico border and the internal displacement of the Rohingya of Myanmar, building upon prior theorizing by considering both the discursive and affective dimensions of each and implications for curriculum and pedagogy. The paper concludes with suggestions for applying these considerations in practice and questions for future inquiry.","PeriodicalId":45129,"journal":{"name":"Review of Education Pedagogy and Cultural Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79914685","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It explores the ways in which class intersects with religion in Turkey where, politics, culture, social, and even economic life are marked by a deep divide among the religious and the secular. Focusing on a particular segment of the middle classes, that with higher economic and social capital, the article brings to fore the ways in which religiosity and secularity structure the processes of transforming privileges into acquired rights in the form of educational qualifications and extracurricular skills. It explores the current sociological conjuncture that bereaves both groups, albeit in different ways, of their ability to fully mobilize their accumulated economic, social, and cultural capitals in reproducing their class position in their children. The article argues that exploring the parenting of education along the secular and the religious divide can unravel the foundational elements of the ongoing competition and conflict in Turkey and enables a deeper understanding of the current divide and the potential for a future reconciliation. The study relies on a qualitative study that entails interviews with thirty families and two focus groups.","PeriodicalId":45129,"journal":{"name":"Review of Education Pedagogy and Cultural Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2023-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73305548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Yet attention to how learning unfolds within social movement organizations has not been adequately studied. Informed by critical learning sciences, we investigated Kokua Hawaii, a social movement organization that catalyzed a near half century of grassroots activism throughout Hawaiʻi and the Pacific. We argue that Kokua Hawaii offered a space for activists to: (1) conceptualize eviction as a symptom of colonialism and capitalism, (2) open themselves to Kānaka Maoli (Native Hawaiian) epistemologies and lifeways, (3) participate in shared labor and collective care, and (4) author affirming and purposeful activist identities. Data includes 34 publicly available oral history interviews with members of Kokua Hawaii.

Rendra is a literary work that has its own charm. Apart from being a medium of entertainment, this poem also holds various meanings and intentions in it, which are conveyed by the author through the form of semiotic signs that must be understood by the reader so that the meaning can be conveyed properly. On the other hand, not everything can be given meaning without reason. The existence of semiotic studies, especially Ferdinand De Saussure's semiotics, can certainly be applied as a theory to dissect poetry from an easy level. The use of semiotic studies is to analyze the signifier and signified contained in the poetry text. This study utilizes a qualitative data analysis method, namely reducing data, then producing a conclusion. The results obtained show that the poem does contain a lot of signifiers and signifieds that describe the twists and turns of the life of a prisoner who has to spend a lot of time in a dark prison room.
