RELACIONISMO, EXIGÊNCIAS EMPIRISTAS E RELATIVIDADE
Authors: Marques Elton
Published: August 2017

O relacionismo é uma doutrina que aceita algumas exigências para a ontologia do espaço-tempo. Em tese, o relacionismo é a única proposta capaz de atender a essas exigências. Procurarei mostrar: a) o compromisso empirista subjacente; b) alguns critérios e exigências que o relacionista se impõe (explícitos ou implícitos); c) nossa melhor teoria sobre o espaço-tempo não é plenamente relacionista, apesar do desejo confesso de seu autor; d) as exigências não são inelimináveis, levando-se em consideração sua restritividade para o poder explicativo de teorias. Após discutir a pertinência das exigências relacionistas, este artigo apresentará um argumento favorável ao substantivismo.

En el escenario educativo actual, marcado por el incremento sistemático de grupos minoritarios en las aulas, así como por las desigualdades que se reproducen y actualizan en los contextos educativos, el desarrollo de propuestas inspiradas en principios de inclusión, multiculturalidad y justicia social cobran cada vez más relevancia. Mediante un trabajo etnográfico de observación participante en una escuela pública del área metropolitana de Barcelona, esta investigación analiza dos sistemas de actividad educativa en un mismo contexto escolar: procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje basados en enfoques tradicionales y procesos de enseñanza-aprendizaje inspirados en el modelo Quinta Dimensión (5D). Los resultados evidencian que cuando los sistemas de actividad permiten a sus participantes vincular los contenidos curriculares a sus referentes culturales, cuando se privilegian interacciones colaborativas orientadas a metas compartidas y se ajustan las ayudas educativas a las necesidades de los educando, se amplían las oportunidades de éxito escolar para y se eliminan barreras para su aprendizaje y participación.

Published: August 2017

In this paper, the authors propose the design of a new orthogonal small set Kasami code sequence generated using combination of non-orthogonal m-sequence and small set Kasami code sequence. The authors demonstrate that the proposed code sequence has comparable auto-correlation function (ACF), cross- correlation function (CCF), peak cross-correlation values with that of the existing orthogonal small set Kasami code sequence. Though the proposed code sequence has less code sequence sets than that of the existing orthogonal small set Kasami code sequence, the proposed code sequence possesses one more numbers of members in each code sequence set. The members of the same code set of the proposed code sequence are orthogonal to each other.

Published: August 2017

This article presents findings of a larger SHHRC-funded study (1998-2002) on competencies expected of and exhibited by educational and social professionals working with young children from socioeconomically disadvantaged environments. After describing the context of socioeducational interventions in early childhood education in Quebec, the authors present the duality and the potential complementarity of the values underlying this intervention by comparing the kindergarten classroom with day-care environments for children aged 4 and 5. Then, the authors present the findings of a survey based on a random sample of parents of young Quebecois children enrolled in or having attended day-care centers or kindergarten classrooms. The article highlights the differences in parents’ expectations according to the types of pre school environment and according to socioeconomic levels. These expectations are compared to the purposes of each environment as defined by their respective curriculum articulated in official policy. Finally, the issues resulting from the debate on the educational or non-educational nature of pre-school education are examined in light of the needs of society as reflected by Quebecois parents.

"Try to Understand Us":Aboriginal Elders’ Views on Exceptionality
Authors: Phillips Ron
Published: August 2017

This article provides an analysis of the views of four Elders at the “A Window to Seeing the World Differently, National Symposium on Aboriginal Special Education” that was held in October 2005 at First Nations University of Canada in Regina.  The symposium was an opportunity to provide educators, students, parents, and community members with information on Aboriginal views on special education.  Concern had been expressed over the high numbers of Aboriginal students being identified as “special needs” attending schools on reserves throughout Canada.  There was also concern over difficulties with the current special education system, e.g., funding, assessment, and service issues.  It was believed that the Aboriginal worldview of students with special needs as having special gifts from the Creator was not integrated into the curriculum or into teaching practices.  The article concludes with suggestions for educators on how to address exceptionalities in Aboriginal communities. Keywords: Aboriginal education, Elders, exceptionality, special education, Aboriginal special   education.
Community Action-Based Field Work: Training Counselors to Become Social Agents in Schools and Communities
Authors: Montes Adonay Antonio , Schroeder Laurie
Published: August 2017

The requirement to complete field work hours as “action based pedagogy” allowed candidates in a school counseling program to broaden their cultural perceptions of diverse groups by engaging in action research projects of their own choosing, led by their interest in and commitment to becoming familiar with diverse populations of K-12 students. This assignment allowed candidates to immerse themselves in culturally rich schools as researchers to understand better the experiences of diverse students. In the planning and implementation of these projects, the school counseling trainees deconstructed cultural barriers, changed their perceptions and preconceived stereotypical notions about diverse groups and gained social advocacy skills for use in their work as professional counselors supporting the academic and aspirational growth of minority students. Candidates also became familiar with multicultural literature and resources available concerning diverse populations.
Examining My Assessment Literacy Instruction Practices with Teacher Candidates
Authors: Rice Mary
Published: August 2017

In this self-study, the author examines her teacher education practices in preparing teacher candidates to assess the literacy of English learners (ELs). According to Lee (2007), disciplinary literary is essential to supporting students in becoming active in democratic pursuits. Conceptualizing literacy in this broader way for teacher candidates and then promoting the exclusive use of tools like fluency exercises and comprehension inventories for their classroom practice seems like a mixed message. The author identified three concepts from the course materials that she determined were important for teacher candidates to consider in assessing literacy development in ELs. These were (a) notions of ELs preexisting literacy in their native languages, in particularly in content area subject matter for curriculum-making, (b) fundamental understandings about second language acquisition, and (c) knowledge of measurement practices as an avenue for advocacy. These three ideas framed the literature reviewed for this study and positioned the author to use narrative accounts of her teaching as data which yielded findings.

Eating As If It Really Matters: Teaching The Pedagogy of Food in the Age of Globalization
Authors: Sumner Jennifer
Published: August 2017

To survive, we need to eat. And yet eating is much more than just ingesting fuel to keep our bodies going. Besides being a source of sustenance, food is a cause for celebration, an inducement to temptation, a weapon for wielding power, an indicator of well-being, a catalyst for change, and a vehicle for learning. In the age of globalization, these characteristics are magnified and obscured – magnified by the complexities of globalization and obscured by the powerful interests that drive this process forward. Within this global context, this paper describes the development and teaching of an adult education course called The Pedagogy of Food. Born out of the recent upsurge in interest in food-related issues, the course focused on eating as a pedagogical act, and invited students to become part of the global dialogue on food.
Precarious Learning and Labour in Financialized Times
Authors: Magnusson Jamie
Published: August 2017

Our current globalized economic regimes of financialized capital have systematically altered relations of learning and labour through the dynamics of precarity, debt, and the political economy of new wars. The risks of these regimes are absorbed unevenly across transnational landscapes, creating cartographies of violence and dispossession, particularly among youth, indigenous, working class, and racialized women. Presently there is surprisingly little discussion on the relevance of financialization for adult educators. Transnational resistances organizing against neoliberal restructuring, austerity policies, and debt crises are emerging at the same time that massive investments are being made into homeland security and the carceral state. This paper opens up discussion on the implications of financialized times for educators, and develops an analytic framework for examining how these global realities are best addressed at local sites of adult and higher education.

The responses of counselor candidates, gathered through two surveys, suggest that understanding their identities will ease the process of creating bridges between them and the cultural richness of students and their parents.
Teachers as researchers: A discovery of their emerging role and impact through a school-university collaborative research
Authors: Chow Ken , Chu Samuel Kai Wah , Tavares Nicole , Lee Celina Wing Yi
Published: August 2017

This study explored the impact of the role of teacher-researchers on in-service teachers’ professional development, as well as the reasons behind the lack of a teacher-as-researcher ethos in schools. In the study, teachers from four Hong Kong primary schools participated in a school-university collaborative research project that promotes collaborative inquiry project-based learning (IPjBL), in which they took the dual role of the teacher and researcher. Five focus group interviews were conducted with the teachers to collect in-depth qualitative data on their experiences. The impact of this experience on teacher professionalism was examined from four dimensions: knowledge enrichment, school culture, teaching practice and curriculum design. The study provides evidence for the benefits of teacher research and sheds light on how university-school collaboration could contribute to engaging teachers in action research in their everyday classroom.

This essay traces the enduring aesthetic of the Victorian Christmas back to nineteenth-century England and explores the emergence of the ostensibly “traditional” Christmas celebration. The expansion of commercial opportunities in the nineteenth century gave rise to new symbolism within the celebrations of Christmas in England that had, previously, been primarily influenced by religious observances and imported German traditions. By looking at a range of different sources, including literature, diaries, and advertisements, this essay highlights shifting interpretations of Christmas, especially after the 1830s and towards the end of the nineteenth century, caused and accelerated by rising consumerism. Ultimately, material culture became a crucial component of the English celebration of Christmas, from attractive advertisements in newspapers to the seasonal decoration of shopping centres to the consumption of sumptuous fare, through which the Victorians produced new symbolic and iconographical values for Christmas within the secular domain.

Social Justice in a Multicultural Society: Experience from the UK
Authors: Craig Gary
Published: August 2017

Social justice is a contested concept. For example, some on the left argue for equality of outcomes, those on the right for equality of opportunities, and there are differing emphases on the roles of state, market and individual in achieving a socially just society. These differences in emphasis are critical when it comes to examining the impact that public policy has on minority ethnic groups. Social justice should not be culture-blind any more than it can be gender-blind yet the overwhelming burden of evidence from the UK shows that public policy, despite the political rhetoric of fifty years of governments since large-scale immigration started, has failed to deliver social justice to Britain’s minorities. In terms of outcomes, in respect for and recognition of diversity and difference, in their treatment, and in the failure of governments to offer an effective voice to minorities, the latter continue to be marginalised in British social, economic and political life. This is not an argument for abandoning the project of multiculturalism, however, but for ensuring that it is framed within the values of social justice.
Disciplining Global Society
Authors: Evans Tony
Published: August 2017

One of the puzzles of the current era is the divide between optimists and pessimists on the question of human rights. The prominence of human rights on the international political agenda sustains the optimist’s hopes for the future, while pessimists point to continued and widespread reports of civil, political, economic, social and cultural violations. This article looks at the tensions and apparent contradictions between these two approaches. Following a discussion on the construction of global human rights discourse(s), the article concludes that the pretensions of law act to mask the socioeconomic normative framework that acts to discipline global society.
The Knowledge Economy, Gender and Stratified Migrations
Authors: Kofman Eleonore
Published: August 2017

The promotion of knowledge economies and societies, equated with the mobile subject as bearer of technological, managerial and cosmopolitan competences, on the one hand, and insecurities about social order and national identities, on the other, have in the past few years led to increasing polarisation between skilled migrants and those deemed to lack useful skills. The former are considered to be bearers of human capital and have the capacity to assimilate seamlessly and are therefore worthy of citizenship; the latter are likely to pose problems of assimilation and dependency due to their economic and cultural ‘otherness’ and offered a transient status and partial citizenship by receiving states. In the European context this trend has been reinforced by the redrawing of European geopolitical space creating new boundaries of exclusion and social justice. The emphasis on the knowledge economy also generates gender inequalities and stratifications based on skills and types of knowledge with implications for citizenship and social justice.
The Work of Hunger: Security, Development and Food-for-Work in Post-crisis Jakarta
Authors: Essex Jamey
Published: August 2017

Food-for-work programs distribute food aid to recipients in exchange for labor, and are an important mode of aid delivery for both public and private aid providers. While debate continues as to whether food-for-work programs are socially just and economically sensible, governments, international institutions, and NGOs continue to tout them as a flexible and cost-effective way to deliver targeted aid and promote community development. This paper critiques the underlying logic of food-for-work, focusing on how this approach to food aid and food security promote labor force participation by leveraging hunger against poverty, and how the ideological and practical assumptions of food-for-work become enmeshed within discourses of geopolitical security. I rely on a case study examination of US-funded food-for-work programs implemented in Jakarta, Indonesia following the 1997 financial crisis. The crisis produced acute food insecurity and poverty in Indonesia, provoking fears of mob violence by the hungry poor and the spread of radical Islamism in the post-crisis political vacuum. Food-for-work programs were, in this context, meant to resolve the problems of both food insecurity and geopolitical insecurity by providing food to targeted populations, employment to those otherwise thrown out of work, and resituating the hungry poor in relation to broader scales of local, national, and global power.
Consciousness and Conscience: Feminism, Pragmatism, and the Potential for Radical Change
Authors: Fischer Clara
Published: August 2017

Pragmatist philosopher John Dewey famously stated that man is a creature of habit, and not of reason or instinct. In this paper, I will assess Dewey's explication of the habituated self and the potential it holds for radical transformative processes. In particular, I will examine the process of coming to feminist consciousness and will show that a feminist-pragmatist reading of change can accommodate a view of the self as responsible agent. Following the elucidation of the changing self, I will appraise key pragmatist concepts of inquiry, such as doubt and self-reflexivity, with regard to their treatment of deep-seated internalizations of oppressive norms and the initiation of change. Ultimately, I will argue that a feminist-pragmatist understanding of transformation is conducive not only to the project of personal transformation, but also to social and political change more generally.
The Queer Politics of Migration: Reflections on “Illegality” and Incorrigibility
Authors: De Genova Nicholas
Published: August 2017

The most resounding expression of the truly unprecedented mobilizations of migrants throughout the United States in 2006 was a mass proclamation of collective defiance:  ¡Aquí Estamos, y No Nos Vamos!  [Here we are, and we're not leaving!].  This same slogan was commonly accompanied by a still more forcefully incorrigible rejoinder:  ¡Y Si Nos Sacan, Nos Regresamos! [... and if they throw us out, we'll come right back!].  It is quite striking and, as this essay contends, not merely provocative but genuinely productive to note the affinity between the crucial articulation of this radically open-ended politics of migrant presence with the similarly abject and profoundly destabilizing politics of queer presence.  In a manner remarkably analogous to the slogan, "We're here, we're queer, get used to it!", the dynamic enunciation of these phrases in the context of the mass mobilizations of migrants asserted an irreducible spirit of irreverence and disaffection for state power. Both gestures unreservedly and unapologetically assert not only their irreversible presence, furthermore, but also uphold the intractable challenge of their own intrinsic incorrigibility.
Serving Social Justice: The Role of the Commons in Sustainable Food Systems
Authors: Sumner Jennifer
Published: August 2017

Food is a source of sustenance, a cause for celebration, an inducement to temptation, a vehicle for power, an indicator of well-being, a catalyst for change and, above all, a life good.  Along with other life goods such as potable water, clean air, adequate shelter and protective clothing, food is something we cannot live without.  The global corporate food system, however, allows 800 million to go hungry, while an even larger number of people grow obese.  Based in money-values, this food system promotes accumulation first and foremost, enriching a few while creating economic, social and environmental externalities that are destroying local economies, devastating individuals, families and communities and degrading the planet. What would a food system look like that was based in life-values, centred on the commons and anchored by social justice?  This paper will focus on the creation of sustainable food systems, beginning with the crises of the global corporate food system and then moving to the heart of sustainable food systems – the civil commons.
Full-Spectrum Reproductive Justice: The Affinity of Abortion Rights and Birth Activism
Authors: Shaw Jessica
Published: August 2017

This paper argues that not only is there a relationship between birth activism and abortion activism, but that if empowering women is the goal, the two cannot be separated. By understanding how women's bodies have been controlled and their reproductive lives appropriated, the current pro-choice and birth activist frameworks that are used to advocate for women can no longer be understood to address women’s needs. It is by working through the framework of full-spectrum reproductive justice that women may become truly empowered to regain control over their reproductive lives.
