文化多元主义语境下的普遍主义——以哈贝马斯与罗尔斯为例     

李望根 《安庆师范学院学报(社会科学版)》2012,31(1):97-100

上世纪六七十年代,后现代主义开始滥觞,人们提倡文化与价值的差异、多元和特殊。哈贝马斯坚持普遍主义政治的可能,其实现依赖于公共领域中的理性沟通,在立法与行政的合法程序中寻求共识。罗尔斯提出了"正当优先于善"的命题,在人们所信仰的多元化的完备性学说的基础上,公民就政治领域诸问题达成重叠共识。这种对话的普遍主义有待建构,能为我们支离破碎的世界提供一个坚实的思想基础。  相似文献   

Report on multicultural education in pesantren     

Raihani 《Compare》2012,42(4):585-605

This article aims to report a single case study of how an Islamic boarding school (pesantren) in Yogyakarta, Indonesia, prepared students for a multicultural Indonesia. Despite negative portrayal by the Western media about increasing Islamic radicalism in some pesantren, many pesantren are in fact transforming into modern Islamic institutions, incorporating the teaching of democratic values and practices, endorsing civil society and community development, and inculcating cultural/religious diversity and tolerance in students. Using schoolyard and classroom ethnographies, along with in-depth interviews and focus group discussions (FGD) with teachers and students, the study found that classroom and non-classroom practices of the pesantren promote the development of multicultural education. Several subjects within both curriculum developed by the government and curriculum developed by pesantrens discuss a considerable number of issues that relate to cultural and religious diversity, tolerance, citizenship and democracy. The non-classroom practices of pesantren offer invaluable and intensive experiences for students to socialise with peers from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds. However, challenges remain for the kyai (the pesantren’s great leader) and other leaders, such as teachers’ lack of competency, unclear multicultural objectives in both the pesantren’s curricula and the pesantren’s traditions, and unequal relations among students and among teachers. These challenges must be overcome to further develop education for cultural diversity.  相似文献

加拿大多元文化政策缘起之新探     

王建波 《巢湖学院学报》2012,(4):89-93

加拿大多元文化政策的完整内涵是双语框架下的多元文化政策。其特别的内容特征折射出加拿大复杂的族群关系和政治难题。加拿大版本的多元文化政策是加拿大联邦自由党总理特鲁多基于自己的政治理念,为应对魁北克政治分离主义的挑战并谋求最终化解这一政治难题而出台的战略国策。移民族群和原住民在加拿大多元文化政策的出台中所起的促动作用,不宜过分夸大。  相似文献   

农民工城市融入研究的价值澄清——多元文化主义视角     

赵书超  刘秀娥  张春花 《石家庄学院学报》2012,14(1):27-31

在社会发展城市化的背景下,农民工“城市融入”成了热门话题,而农民工“市民化”作为“城市融入”的基本路径,几乎成为多数研究者的共识。但是,这种“教育或塑造农民工”的单向度研究理路和文化范式,是与多元文化主义思想相背离的。从多元文化主义视角看,农民工城市融入是农民工与市民的对话及相互磨合与适应的过程、城市文化与乡村文化的双向作用与融合的过程、生长出新的社会文化的过程;从过程本身看,农民工城市融入是在他们的社会行动与不断反思中实现的;从演进条件看,农民工城市融入需要一个平等、支持的外部环境。  相似文献   

Identity politics,justice and the schooling of Muslim girls: navigating the tensions between multiculturalism,group rights and feminism     

Amanda Keddie 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》2014,35(3):353-370

This article focuses on the concerns expressed by three female Muslim educators who are support staff at an English comprehensive school. Consistent with the debates associated with multiculturalism, group rights and feminism, the article illuminates spaces of gender constraint and possibility within the discourses shaping these women’s lives and the lives of the Muslim girls they educate. With reference to an initiative at the school designed to support these girls’ greater self-determination – an Islamic discussion group – the article highlights the significance of a justice politics that begins with overcoming relations of status subordination rather than on differentiated group identity.  相似文献   

Introducing Torres Strait Island dance to the Australian high school physical education curriculum     

John Williams 《Asia Pacific Journal of Education》2014,34(3):305-318

This study was carried out within the context of a requirement for every Australian Capital Territory Education and Training Directorate (ACT ETD) high school to include Indigenous perspectives across all areas of the curriculum. For the first time ever in the case study school reported in this article, two Torres Strait Island dances were taught to students from Year 7 to Year 9. Traditionally dance within Physical Education (PE) in the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) has been informed by British and American influences. This paper seeks to problematize the inclusion of Indigenous dance into a Westernized PE curriculum and considers the challenges faced by non-Indigenous Health and Physical Education (HPE) teachers in relation to this, as well as what support is available. It is argued from the findings of this study that it is possible for schools to move beyond traditional PE content and include Indigenous perspectives in a non-tokenistic way. However, it is also argued that such an approach requires Indigenous people to have a central role, and for non-Indigenous teachers to challenge taken for granted mainstream Westernized and racialized teaching practices and discourses.  相似文献   

Three educational values for a multicultural society: Difference recognition,national cohesion and equality     

Lawrence Blum 《Journal of moral education》2014,43(3):332-344

Educational aims for societies comprising multiple ethnic, cultural and racial groups should involve three different values—recognizing difference, national cohesion and equality. Recognition of difference acknowledges and respects ethnocultural identities and in educational contexts also encourages mutual engagement across difference. National cohesion involves teaching a sense of civic attachment to a nation and to one’s fellow citizens of different groups and identities. ‘Multiculturalism’ has traditionally been understood to support the first value but not as much the second, a charge made by ‘interculturalism,’ a newer idea in Europe and francophone Canada. But Tariq Modood, this year’s Kohlberg Memorial Lecturer, has argued that national integration has always been a goal of multiculturalism. However, neither multiculturalism nor interculturalism has placed sufficient emphasis on equality as a social and educational ideal. Equality is a complex idea that involves both equal treatment by teachers of students from different groups, and also relative equal student outcomes among different groups.  相似文献

全球化和多元化对许多国家的发展带来重要影响,同时也要求这些国家的教育适应其人口多元化的发展.过去60年英国也在致力于探寻一条适应其人口多元化发展的路径.人口的多元化发展,不仅要求课程设置进行改革,也要求教师培养方式的转变.然而这种由人口多元化带来的差异与统一的国家和公民身份融合仍显得比较困难.  相似文献   

The Challenge of Change     

E. D. Duryea 《College Teaching》2013,61(2):65-67

A large literature establishes the benefits of discussions for stimulating student engagement and critical thinking skills. However, we know considerably less about the differential effects of various discussion environments on student learning. In this study, we assess student perceptions concerning the benefits of discussions in an upper-level political science class. We compare how students evaluated discussions in the whole-class environment, in small face-to-face discussion groups, and in online discussion groups. Overall, according to student surveys, small discussion groups elicited the highest student satisfaction and scored highest in critical thinking skills, while online discussions provided the best forum to express thoughts. While they did not favor all-class discussions, students reported that this format, too, provided benefits.  相似文献
