Post-foundational approaches to comparative and international education blog
Our February reading will be:
Sardar, Z. (2003). What chaos? What coherence? Across the river I called. In S. Inayatullah & G. Boxwell (Eds.). Islam, Postmodernism and Other Futures: A Ziauddin Sardar Reader (pp. 333-349). Pluto Press. Here's the description from our member Rozena Raja who recommended this piece: "I especially like this piece because of its treatment of chaos and coherence as Western ways of understanding the world. The world has always been complex, there have always been parts of the "system" that are outside the grasp of human perception and reason. I also like how the article ends on a hopeful note and a good way forward, including humility." The synchronous discussion of this piece will take place on Friday, Feb 28, 2020 1:00 pm | 1 hour | (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada). Please email [email protected] for the log in information and to request access to the reading if needed.

AuthorThe SIG was founded in 2014 to open and foster new areas of inquiry within the field of CIE. In this blog, we aim to convene the curious who want to (and are) challenging and transcending limitations inherent in the field's traditional "foundations" (Western ideas of modernity, society, and development). We can open new conversations in the study of education and schooling globally, going beyond the brick and mortar CIES venue. Less about the topics themselves, this blog features exploration and exchange that allows us to stretch the conventional means by which education has been studied (e.g. disciplinary bodies, regional divisions, cross-national comparison). We are weaving in some of those ongoing conversations from PfA perspectives, with the hope that you, our readers/writers, will pick up threads and (re)conceptualize, (re)theorize, and (re)frame together.
