Call for Chapter Submission: Globalization, Societies and Education

The journal of Globalisation, Societies and Education invites contributors for upcoming special issue on "Mobilising Global Citizenship Education for Alternative Futures in Challenging Times." 

Ten years ago, they published a special issue of Globalisation, Societies and Education examined the political economy of global citizenship education (GCE). Since then, GCE has gained more prominence, as evidenced by its inclusion in the UN Sustainable Development Goals  Yet, existing educational approaches to global engagement and interdependence appear increasingly insufficient  They invite contributors to extend critical consideration of GCE beyond political economy alone to also address the intellectual, affective, and relational economies that frame, enable, and foreclose different educational possibilities. 

 

                             

 

They particularly welcome submissions that address these varied concerns, and that weave critiques of systemic, historical, and ongoing colonial and imperialist violence with critiques of the inherently unsustainable economic model that is premised on infinite growth on a finite planet.

Contributors are encouraged to historicize the approaches that have thus far oriented GCE, assess what has changed and why, and consider what theories and practices could have an impact in the current context, especially given the conditions of dispersed knowledge authorities and fragmented attention.

Full papers (3000 to 7000 words) must be submitted to the Globalisation, Societies and Education online submission platform by August 31, 2020.
