Description

With a focus on the Global South, this book argues that awareness and discussion of the politics of equity and inclusion in global citizenship education (GCE) research are essential to the future of nuanced and effective research in this area. Misiaszek explores the notion of heavily regulated "hard spaces" to examine areas of institutional "blindness" and reflects on ways to negotiate the issue of "sensitivity" in an institutional context, exploring how one’s sensitivity relates to pedagogy and ethics. Through this in-depth meta-discussion of GCE research, Misiaszek provides a complex portrait of unique challenges in this domain and explores the nuanced experience of navigating temporal intersections of the global, the citizen, and education in geographically and thematically-obstacled spaces. This book will be of great interest to researchers, policymakers, academics and postgraduate students in the fields of global education, comparative education, and educational policy.
