Opis

This text seeks to explore the ethical, methodological & social justice questions that arise in education research that is founded on conceptualizations of binary opposites. In education research these dualisms may include ability-disability, academic-vocational, adult-child, domestic-foreign, male-female, public-private, & young-old.
