Session Summary

75.042-1 - Producing Disciplined State Subjects: Intersectional Analyses of Race and Citizenship

Tue, April 9, 8:00 to 9:30am, Metro Toronto Convention Centre, Floor: 800 Level, Hall G

Session Type: Roundtable Session

Abstract

This session explores how citizenship is governed through educative practices, how subjectivities are constituted through difference, and how compliance with discourses, affects, and apparatuses, thereby reify, normalize, and proliferate geopolitical projects of the nation-state. Addressing the multiplicity of roles that education takes up with regards to citizenship, the papers in this session trouble notions of what constitutes education within and beyond schooling practices and the reach of education beyond schooling into rights, laws, and policies. Collectively we argue that academic and international development entities are central in ascribing, molding, and denoting particular subjectivities as worthy, valuable, productive, and desirable and others as contemptuous.
