Foucault and a Politics of Confession in Education (eBook, PDF)

Redaktion: Fejes, Andreas; Nicoll, Katherine

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

In liberal, democratic and capitalist societies today, we are increasingly invited to disclose our innermost thoughts to others. We are asked to turn our gaze inwards, scrutinizing ourselves, our behaviours and beliefs, while talking and writing about ourselves in these terms. This form of disclosure of the self resonates with older forms of church confession, and is now widely seen in practices of education in new ways in nurseries, schools, colleges, universities, workplaces and the wider policy arena.
