Negotiating Diasporic Identity in Arab-Canadian Students: Double Consciousness, Belonging, and Radicalization: Palgrave Studies in Educational Futures

Autor Wisam Kh. Abdul-Jabbar
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 23 mai 2019
This book, framed through the notion of double consciousness, brings postcolonial constructs to sociopolitical and pedagogical studies of youth that have yet to find serious traction in education. Significantly, this book contributes to a growing interest among educational and curriculum scholars in engaging the pedagogical role of literature in the theorization of an inclusive curriculum. Therefore, this study not only recognizes the potential of immigrant literature in provoking critical conversation on changes young people undergo in diaspora, but also explores how the curriculum is informed by the diasporic condition itself as demonstrated by this negotiation of foreignness between the student and selected texts.
