Description
Vulnerability, Extremism, and Schooling: Restorative Practices, Policy Enactment, and Managing Risk documents and analyzes efforts by educational policymakers to combat susceptibility to extremism within disadvantaged communities. Schools worldwide are increasingly enlisted in the efforts of nation-states to prevent or counter violent extremism. However, since extremism is a notoriously complex and difficult concept to define, attempts to counter violent extremism are inevitably entangled in issues of political and social power. Through the lens of affective governance--which refers to a style of governing emphasizing the emotional and psychological needs of citizens, as well as their sense of connection and belonging to their community--this book draws attention to how policy implementation can be closely aligned with government agendas revolving around the management of risk. The authors argue that while extremism is closely tied to systemic marginalization, certain approaches and solutions can be problematic for the disadvantaged populations they are meant to help.
