Abstract

'Green's seminal book treats the relationship between education and the state...As a collective future in Europe takes shape, this timely book raises questions which Britain surely cannot afford to ignore about the aims of a public education system.' Times Educational Supplement Britain was the last major European state to create a national education system and is set to be the first to dismantle it. In this wide-ranging comparative study, Andy Green examines the reasons for the uneven development of public education in England, Prussia, France and the USA and locates the origins of England's educational peculiarities in the voluntary system of the Victorian period.

Abstract

This book collects studies with a ‘critical education policy orientation’, and presents itself as a handbook of matters of public concern. The term ‘critical’ does not refer to the adoption of a particular theoretical framework or methodology, but rather it refers to a very specific ethos or way of relating to the present and the belief that the future should not be the repetition of the past. This implies a concern about what is happening in our societies today and what could or should be happening in the future. As a consequence, the contributors to the book rely on a general notion of public policy that takes on board processes, practices, and discourses at a variety of levels, in diverse governmental and non-governmental contexts, and considers the relation of policy to power, to politics and to social regulation. Following the detailed introduction that aims at picturing the landscape of studies with a ‘critical education policy orientation’, the book presents re-readings of six policy challenges; globalization, knowledge society, lifelong learning, equality/democracy/social inclusion, accountability/control/efficiency and teacher professionalism. It seeks to contextualise these in relation to issues of current global concern at the start of the 21st century. Despite the diversity of approaches, this collection of critical education policy studies shares a concern with what could be called ‘the public, and its education,’ and represents a snapshot of education policy research at a particular time

Abstract

Church-state relations have always been important but the need for an historical re-evaluation has been heightened by recent developments in the relations between governments and religious bodies. Drawing on a wide range of historical case-studies this book focuses particularly on the way in which the traditional European Old World fusion of church and state was reshaped in the New World of European settler colonies of the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Its analysis illuminates both the historical dynamics of such changes and the way in which such developments continue to influence the conduct of church-state relations in both the Old and the New Worlds.

Abstract

Dans la plupart des pays musulmans, l'islam est proclamé religion d'Etat et source principale ou exclusive de toute législation. Depuis les années 1970, l'impasse des modernisations autoritaires et des politiques de développement qu'elles ont inspirées a fait le lit de mouvements qui revendiquent le " retour à l'islam " et rejettent les modèles qualifiés d'occidentaux. Dès lors, l'approche des réalités islamiques s'est trouvée piégée par une opposition manichéenne entre un islam éternel qui serait par essence réfractaire à la séparation entre le politique et le religieux, à la démocratie et aux droits de l'homme, et un Occident tout aussi éternel et dont l'essence aurait été à l'origine de la modernité. S'inscrivant contre cette vision essentialiste commune aux partisans de l'islam politique et à une certaine islamophobie " savante ", ce livre fait le point sur la genèse et l'évolution des doctrines et des conceptions politiques qui se réclament de l'islam, en restituant les catégories qu'elles mobilisent (Califat, sharî'a, ûmma, etc.) dans les contextes culturels et historiques de leurs usages. L'approche historique et comparative adoptée ici conduit à la relativisation des schémas au nom desquels l'islam se trouve opposé à la " modernité occidentale " ; elle permet de saisir les enjeux sociaux et politiques des débats actuels autour de questions comme la laïcité, le statut des femmes, la liberté de conscience, l'évolution du droit et des institutions, etc.
