Lecture and Seminar Notes 8/11/13
Language and Ideology
Discursive practices of language constitute what we know about a particular issue (see
Foucault)
...

Ideology seeks to legitimise a certain way of looking at the world, at the expense of other
perspectives
...
For example, education as a
collective right of everyone in society (ideology of citizenship), but subordination of gender,
religion, and race in cultural and social practices of education (female/male subjects,
sectarian divisions of schools)
...

Education: what is it for?
Ideological perspectives of individuals living in the welfare era: values in community and
society, education as a means of social justice
...

Economic paradigm shift: Keynesian economics of welfare (state investment in housing,
health care, jobs, and education) to globalisation and the New Right (privatisation, reduced
state, marginalised working-class, education as commodity)
New Right and the notion of a 'educational customers': emergence of a globalised
economy was meant educational institutions are forced into market principles of ranking
and private funding
...

Welfare era education
Equality of conditions
Ideology of municipal socialism: state investment in students because of the value in
democratic capabilities of education
...
Feminist movement responsible for radical changes
in gender equality in further/higher ed

...
