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…

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.

Alduais, Ahmed; Deng, Meng; Gökmen, Seda – Review of Education, 2021
The correctional education system in China is an under-researched area, and there is no evidence of a published systematic review, especially when it has been over 10 years since the enforcement of the National Plan (2010-2020). Therefore, this systematic review examines the practicality of this area and informs policy-makers, practitioners, and…

Standish, Paul – Educational Studies in Japan: International Yearbook, 2019
Many approaches to political education take it to involve the construction of particular sections of the curriculum in which political matters are addressed -- named perhaps "civics" or "citizenship education". While these approaches have often been beneficial, they are all also problematic and controversial in some degree.…

Does more education lead to less political violence, and may education thus be a tool for peace? This article provides the first systematic review of the existing quantitative literature on education and political violence. Looking at arguments pertaining to levels, expansion, inequality, and content of education, we identify 42 quantitative…

Piotrowski, Marcelina; Ruitenberg, Claudia – Critical Studies in Education, 2016
The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between news media and political education within consumer society. We argue that political education today needs to be understood as part of consumerism and media culture, in which individuals selectively expose themselves to and scrutinize various media representations not only of…

Suissa, Judith – Ethics and Education, 2015
In this article, I explore some contemporary versions of character education with specific reference to the extent to which they are viewed as constituting a form of citizenship education. I argue that such approaches often end up displacing the idea of political education and, through their language and stated aims, avoid any genuine engagement…

Thomas Kpetay, Shakita; Lozenski, Brian D. – Educational Studies: Journal of the American Educational Studies Association, 2021
Drawing from the histories of nonformal Black education, (Pp)an-Africanist scholarship, and critical qualitative research, this participatory ethnographic study documents an organic conception of public space where Black people, many of whom have been disaffected by traditional public schools, come to teach and learn with each other. The article…

Yumoto, Hiroyuki – International Journal of Development Education and Global Learning, 2017
Japan's educational system has undergone a series of reforms over the past decade or so. Through these reforms, the ruling party has strengthened the involvement of the government and local authorities in education. At the same time, there has been a growing tendency for teachers to avoid taking up political issues in classrooms, in order to…

Kammerer, Edward F., Jr.; Higashi, Brenden – Journal of Political Science Education, 2021
Anecdotal evidence suggests pedagogy research on simulations in political science is dominated by two subfields: International Relations and Comparative Politics. This belief may stem from the widespread use of things like Model United Nations and Model Arab League or the popular game Statecraft. While some other subfields, notably public law,…

What is wrong with "peace education" in Israel? In this article, I attempt to decipher the cultural codes of Israeli schools in their relation to issues of peace, conflict and citizenship. It combines findings from two studies in order to understand how "school culture" animates "peace education." My main contention…

Lyon, Melissa Arnold; Kraft, Matthew A. – Annenberg Institute for School Reform at Brown University, 2021
Teacher strikes have gained national attention with the "#RedforEd" movement. Such strikes are polarizing events that could serve to elevate education as a political priority or cast education politics in a negative light. We investigate this empirically by collecting original panel data on U.S. teacher strikes, which we link to…

Piotrowski, Marcelina – Journal of Curriculum and Pedagogy, 2015
This article examines the comment culture that accompanies documentary films on YouTube as a site of (geo) political education. It considers how viewers try to teach each other about the proper "place" of critique in response to the global, national, and local rhetoric featured in one environmental documentary film. YouTube viewers use…
