03.01.2022 PESA Webinar: Falling In and Out of Love with Philosophy of Education Speaker: Fazal Rizvi Chair: Liz Jackson ... December 7, 12noon Sydney time, via Zoom (The webinar will take place immediately before the PESA AGM. RSVP by emailing [email protected].) In this talk, I will provide a personal narrative of how as an young student of non-English speaking background I was attracted to Philosophy of Education, seeking in its practices an understanding of my cultural dislocation as an immigrant from India to Australia. While trained at the highest level in Analytical Philosophy, I explain why I later became disillusioned with it, recognizing its ethno-centrism, convinced that its ahistorical and apolitical nature undermined education’s ethical potential in a culturally diverse society. I argue however that while I no longer regard myself as a Philosopher of Education, my analytical training has left an indelible mark on the ways in which I approach analyses of educational policy and practice, as well as issues of identity and culture in transnational and transcultural contexts. Fazal Rizvi is Professor Emeriti at the University of Melbourne, as well the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He has written extensively on issues of identity and culture in transnational contexts, globalization and education policy and Australia-Asia relations. His book, co-authored with Bob Lingard, Globalizing Education Policy, is read widely and has been translated in numerous languages. A collection of his essays is published in: Encountering Education in the Global: Selected Writings of Fazal Rizvi (Routledge 2014). His most recent books include a co-authored volume, Class Choreographies: Elite Schools and Globalization (Palgrave 2017) and a co-edited volume, Transnational Perspectives on Democracy, Citizenship, Human Rights and Peace Education (Bloomsbury 2019). Fazal is a Fellow of the Australian Academy of the Social Sciences and a former Editor of the journal, Discourse: Studies in Cultural Politics of Education, as well as a past President of the Australian Association of Research in Education.
