Reframing the curricular challenge educators face after a decade of school deform, the books published in Peter Lang’s Complicated Conversation series testify to the ethical demands of our time, our place, our profession. In this resounding series of scholarly and pedagogical interventions into the nightmare that is the present, we hear once again the sound of silence breaking, supporting us to rearticulate our pedagogical convictions in this time of terrorism, reframing curriculum as committed to the complicated conversation that is intercultural communication, self- understanding, and global justice.
Historically, moves and counter-moves to define «curriculum» have occurred within highly contested terrain. This book studies curriculum as a discursively produced historically, socially, politically and economically inscribed epistemological space. This epistemological approach to studying the knowing subject and research positionality highlights the importance of understanding how we know what we know. This book presents a three-pronged approach – bringing together curriculum theory, educational research theory, and exemplars of research projects. Curriculum Spaces is an avant-garde research theory that analyzes the discursive production of knowing by drawing upon a number of theories (e.g., critical discourse theories and postmodern theories) to provide a unique lens on education in this historic moment.
