Graduate Seminar on:
Knowledge, Education and Society: Interdisciplinary Perspectives
9-11th April 2015 (Extended Deadline: 10th March 2015)
Convention Centre, JNU
Abstract: Interdisciplinary research in recent times deepened the dialogues between academic disciplines that not only transcended boundaries, one dimensional practices and methodological frameworks but also took noshes from disciplines such as sociology, psychology, linguistics, economics, history and other liberal arts breeding a different knowledge system, discursively practiced differently. Interdisciplinary perspectives into the educational system as a social phenomena evoke questions about knowledge and its epistemic protocols, practice of knowledge systems in different disciplines in education and the influences in which the way the society has been organized, conditioned and transformed. This graduate seminar intends to set off a debate on the relationship between Knowledge, Education and Society in the context of the rapid changes that have occurred both globally and locally where fundamental questions encountered are- What counts as knowledge? Is there an implicit political agenda of institutionalized practices in knowledge and education? How are educational processes in the bastion of globalization being conceived in the changing scenario of society at large? Objectives of the seminar are:
• To locate discourses centered on knowledge and education in the interdisciplinary approaches/fields
• To critically evaluate how disciplinary practices negotiate with discursive forms of knowledge in the era of globalization
• To create an avenue for young scholars to critically engage with knowledge production and its dissemination in both the institutionalized and non-institutionalized practices of the education system.
Sub-Themes Identified for the Seminar are:
• Language, Mind and Education
• Counter Narratives in Educational Discourse
• Youth, Ideology and Movement
• Knowledge, Economy and Diaspora
• Contending Globalization
• Expansion, Excellence and Equity in Higher Education
• Identity, Movement and Conflicts
• Historiography in Knowledge and Education
• Critical Knowledge and Discourses in Curriculum and Pedagogy
