Maton, Rhiannon M.; Stark, Lauren Ware – Journal of Educational Change, 2023
At a time when educators are increasingly rising up within and beyond their unions to protect public education, it is vital to understand how activist educators become politicized and how their activist organizations contribute to such political education efforts. In this article, Maton and Stark examine the grassroots organizing work of three…

Gusacov, Eran – Studies in Philosophy and Education, 2020
Educating students to become participatory citizens in their country is one of the explicit tasks of public education in a democratic-liberal state. In this article, I use civics education in Israel as a case study for the examination of the justification and the practicability of implementing political education in schools, as opposed to…

Pietrzyk-Reeves, Dorota – Education, Citizenship and Social Justice, 2020
In recent years, political theory has benefited from a neo-republican perspective that brought to the fore the conception of a 'republican democracy' which assumes a robust public sphere, civic involvement, and vigilance, as well as a neo-Roman conception of liberty understood as the absence of arbitrary power. Neo-republicanism, however, has not…

Arai, Yusuke – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2019

Chevannes, Derefe Kimarley; Lopez, Josué Ricardo – Comparative Education Review, 2023
Moving beyond the nominal recognition of Black lives toward a struggle for Black liberation raises several challenges, one of which is the critical role of political education. For this reason, this article explores Euromodernity's constructions and sustenance of apolitical educational arrangements that constrain political speech fundamental to a…

Strand, Torill – Ethics and Education, 2023
I here read the Iranian film "Hit the Road" through the eyes of the French philosopher Alain Badiou. In doing so, I hope to illuminate the triadic link between cinema, philosophy and "paideia" (ethical-political education). To explore, I adopt a philosophical methodology with the double ambition to reveal the latent pedagogies…

Knight Abowitz, Kathleen; Mamlok, Dan – Educational Theory, 2020
In this essay, Kathleen Knight Abowitz and Dan Mamlok consider the arguments for agonist political education in light of a case study based in the events of the 2018 mass shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida, and the subsequent activism of its survivors. We use this case to examine agonist expressions of citizenship, and…

Zembylas, Michalinos – Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education, 2020
This paper asks: when political emotions are invoked in the classroom, can this be done without the process of democratic education degenerating into a form of emotional and/or political indoctrination? The source of inspiration for addressing this question is Hannah Arendt's political thought on emotion and education. The aim of the article is to…

Shaw, Ryan D. – Arts Education Policy Review, 2021
This paper presents a critical policy analysis of how anti-political education reforms impact arts education. I consider examples of educational policies--both within arts education and outside the arts--to analyze how arts education may be impacted by anti-politics. I argue that many arts education policy outcomes can be understood as indirectly…

Political Education in Times of Political Apathy and Extreme Political Pathos as Global Ways of Life
Papastephanou, Marianna – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2019
Locating political education in a global time of pathos and apathy, this article explores some complexities that derive from various notions of human distance and affect potentialities of democracy as a way of life. It begins with a diagnosis of current, global realities and discusses the philosophical act of diagnosis as such. The operations of…

Yamanaka, Sho – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2019
This paper discusses the significance of passions in political education through the consideration of Chantal Mouffe's agonistic democracy. Mouffe points out the role of the passions that facilitate organizing political identities, and presents the risks of eliminating passions. The liberal interpretation of democracy intends to eliminate passions…

Lin, Cong; Jackson, Liz – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2019
The relationship between history education and political education in Asian societies is an underexplored topic. Politics have deeply shaped the development of history education in Hong Kong, as in many other societies around the world. Hong Kong history education reforms have been criticized for providing a new form of national political…

Sypnowich, Christine – Journal of Philosophy of Education, 2018
This article analyses utopian and dystopian literature and its role in political education in order to make the case for imparting a 'utopian aspiration' that nurtures hope for the pursuit of political ideals. I note an 'anti-utopian' theme in both literature and political philosophy, a theme that emerges in a particularly fascinating pair of…

Dag, Nilgun; Sozer, Mehmet Akif; Sel, Burcu – Educational Research and Reviews, 2015
Political education is a term with negative associations and triggering prejudiced approaches and discourses--maybe some paranoid thoughts--like "keep politics away from education!" in the minds of several people. This article deals with "political education" phenomenon almost never discussed and made subject to scientific…

Duarte, Newton; Massi, Luciana; Teixeira, Lucas André – Science & Education, 2022
Despite advances in discussions about the nature of science, there is still a paucity of discussion on the ontological dimension of science in science education research that makes it difficult to defend its content and teaching. In this article, the reasons for trusting science and science education are analyzed through three arguments. The first…
