Neoliberal practices amidst social justice orientations: global citizenship education in South Korea     

Hye Seung Cho  Jacqueline Mosselson 《Compare》2018,48(6):861-878

Abstract

Global citizenship education (GCE) positions itself on the global arena as a transformative social justice oriented educational curriculum that addresses the political, social, economic and cultural inequalities brought about through colonisation and neoliberalism on the global and local levels. Through an exploration of the discourse, design and delivery of GCE in the young nation-state of South Korea, we argue that, in fact, GCE reinforces and maintains the hegemonic ideals of global capitalism; core-periphery global and local relationships; and dichotomous views of poverty and inequalities. We argue that these approaches reflect South Korea’s geopolitical realities, but that attitudes towards GCE in South Korea also reflect its cultural norms and values towards working together towards a common good. Ultimately, we call for a more nuanced approach to GCE scholarship in which we move away from theoretical divisions to practical applications of social justice that work within increasingly capitalist/neoliberal interests for a more inclusive world.  相似文献   

Citizenship,beneficence, and informed consent: the ethics of working in mixed-status families     

Ariana Mangual Figueroa 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2016,29(1):66-85

This article draws from a 23-month ethnographic study conducted in mixed-status Mexican homes to detail the particular methodological concerns that arise when conducting research within these legally complex and vulnerable families. Specifically, the analysis illustrates when and why undocumented parents in one focal family asked the ethnographer to consider legally adopting their two young sons in an effort to obtain equal rights for both children and to mitigate the risk of family separation during deportation. The ethical issues of beneficence, informed consent, and reciprocity raised by this particular situation open onto larger methodological and ethical questions relevant to qualitative and ethnographic researchers working within immigrant communities.  相似文献

共产主义国家论     

王海明 《南通师范学院学报》2011,(5):1-10

共产主义国家特征可以归结为＂高度发达的生产力＂以及被它决定的＂生产资料公有制＂、＂按劳分配＂＂、没有政府指挥的市场经济＂、＂只有一个主权和一个世界政府的全球国家＂和＂宪政民主＂。＂高度发达的生产力＂和＂没有政府指挥的市场经济＂意味着共产主义国家物质财富极大丰富,每个人的物质需要都可以得到充分满足,因而实现自己创造性潜能的劳动可能成为每个人的生活第一需要;＂公有制＂和＂按劳分配＂意味着共产主义国家消除了阶级与剥削,因而使国家的实然目的与应然目的完全一致：为每个人谋利益。＂只有一个主权和一个世界政府的全球国家＂意味着共产主义国家消除了战争和常备军,实现了世界大同;＂宪政民主＂意味着完全符合公正与人道以及平等和自由制度道德的理想国家之实现。  相似文献   

美国公民资格的理论范式及其在公民教育中的实践     

乐先莲 《比较教育研究》2011,(11):36-41

公民资格是理解公民教育的起点和基础。美国公民资格理论范式主要体现为自由主义、共和主义、批判主义和跨国主义公民资格。自由主义和共和主义公民资格作为影响美国公民教育的主导话语,对公民教育实践产生了重要影响。批判主义和跨国主义公民资格以其特有的理论活力对公民教育提出了挑战。美国公民资格理论话语的丰富和发展为公民教育实践提供了参照和启示。  相似文献   

教师的文化知识:创造教学的当下意义及其改进的无限可能——密西根大学Kathryn M.Anderson-Levitt教授访谈     

王艳玲 《全球教育展望》2011,(10):3-11

凯瑟琳M.安德森-莱维特教授从教育人类学的视角研究教师知识及其教学。她将教师的文化知识定义为教师所具有的知识、信念、态度,以及教师用以完成教学的实践中的知识;它包括教师从教育学院和实际工作中获得的专业知识,也包含了对课堂、儿童和教学的常识性理解和想当然的知识。她通过人类学的田野研究,得出教师文化知识的五个类别:安排学年课程的知识、组织教学活动的知识、评价学生学习的知识,解释并补救学业失败的知识,以及实践中的知识。她发现,存在着一种对学校教育的跨国理解,或者说,存在着全球化的共同的教育话语,但是在本土层面,学校教学和改革却存在深刻的文化差异。  相似文献

What future teachers believe about democracy and why it is important     

David Zyngier 《Teachers and Teaching》2016,22(7):782-804

This paper analyses pre-service education student perceptions and perspectives related to education for democracy in Australia. Using a critical pedagogical framework datum from an online survey, it presents both quantitative and qualitative responses of contrasting understandings of democracy. It begins by outlining the concepts of thick and thin democracy and why this is important in relation to contemporary debates about the state of civics and citizenship education, and then explains the conceptual framework of critical pedagogy and methodology. The datum analysed is discussed in relation to neoliberalism and indicates that the pre-service teachers in this study view democracy in a narrow or thin way that may impact on their classroom practice where they would be teaching about but not for democracy. A more critical and thicker understanding of democracy is suggested as essential if we desire our students to become active and transformative citizens.  相似文献

优化问题的新步长法则     

吴庆军  韦增欣 《上海大学学报(英文版)》2007,11(2):135-141

The step-size procedure is very important for solving optimization problems. The Armijo step-size rule, the Armijo-Goldstein step-size rule and the Wolfe-Powell step-size rule are three well-known line search methods. On the basis of the above three types of line search methods and the idea of the proximal point methods, a new class of step-size rules was proposed. Instead of a single objective function f, f ＋1/2（x - xk）^TBk（x-Xk） was used as the merit function in iteration k, where Sk is a given symmetric positive definite matrix. The existence of the steplength for the new rules was proved. Some convergence properties were also discussed.  相似文献
