Item Embargo Introduction: the relevance of Marxism to Education.(Palgrave Macmillan, 2023-12) Hall, Richard; Szadkowski, Krystian; Accioly, InnyThis chapter situates the handbook against the ways in which education has been colonized by capital for-value, and the generation of suprpluses on a global scale. It asks a set of questions that guide much of the volume. What is the role of education in the reproduction of the world? What is its role in capitalism’s valorisation process? How do educational structures, cultures and practices reproduce the ways in which capitalism mediates everyday life for-value? The chapter analyzes previous work that draws on Marxist praxis in educational contexts, and sits this in relation to Marx’s writing. It does this in order to highlight a tripartite structure for the Handbook as a whole: first, In: Marxist modes and characteristics of analysis in education; second, Against: Emerging currents in Marxism and education; and third, Beyond: Marxism, education and alternatives. Through this structure, we ask readers to consider how they might contribute to imagining the world otherwise.Item Metadata only The Palgrave International Handbook of Marxism and Education.(Palgrave Macmillan, 2023-12) Hall, Richard; Szadkowski, Krystian; Accioly, InnyThe Palgrave International Handbook of Marxism and Education is an international and interdisciplinary volume, which provides a thorough and precise engagement with emergent developments in Marxist theory in both the global South and North. Drawing on the work of authoritative scholars and practitioners, the Handbook explicitly shows how these developments enable a rich historical and material understanding of the full range of education sectors and contexts. In this, it develops a dialectical understanding of the interactions between the following. • The importance of Marx’s dialectical method in critiquing education. • Transnational and national governance, regulation and funding of education. • Histories and geographies of educational development and change, for instance in relation to corporate forms, the binaries of public/private education, issues of marketisation and commodification. • The structures, cultures and practices of formal and informal educational organisations. • The lived experiences of education by centring a range of intersectional analyses. • The educational role of new social and political movements, like decolonising, indigenous rights, Black Lives Matter and Rhodes must Fall. • The web of life and ecological readings of education. The Handbook proceeds in a spirit of openness and dialogue within and between various conceptions and traditions of Marxism, and brings those conceptions into dialogue with their critics and other anti-capitalist traditions. As such, it contributes to the development of Marxist analyses that push beyond established limits, by engaging with fresh perspectives and views that disrupt established perspectives. In this it attempts to new modes of being, doing and knowing education, as a movement of dignity.
