New Directions in Comparative and International Education
Inhalt:
〈b〉What can a study of international film contribute to our understanding of education in a globalized context?〈/b〉 How can such an exploration further push the boundaries of comparative and international education (CIE) as an academic field? In addressing these questions, Irving Epstein brings together insights from film theory, affect theory and CIE to explore the ways in which educational meanings are mediated through globalization processes. Some of the many films discussed in detail in the book include〈i〉 Parasite, Small Axe, My Octopus Teacher, The Pearl Button, 〈/i〉and 〈i〉A Separation〈/i〉.〈i〉 〈/i〉 Epstein shows how films can speak broadly to issues involving social class privilege, racism, colonialism and indigeneity, and environmental justice regarding educational concerns.
