- Title
Multiplying spaces of subalterity in education: From ideological realms to strategizing outcomes.
- Authors

- Abstract
In recent years, the terrain of subalterity in education has multiplied in heterogeneous ways accentuated through the project of neoliberalism. Unpacking these socially, politically, or ideologically-through three contradictory imperatives-reveals intersecting spaces of marginality, hegemonic discourses, and complicated outcomes related to the governmentality of educational rights. However, despite serious efforts, the relentless task of contesting political rationalities, 'normed' subjectivities, or technologies of power has not gained sufficient collective momentum to usurp such modes of governance and thought. These arguments are explored through a range of empirical cases in Ontario ranging from refugee and migrant rights, to the reproduction of racial/sexual/classed profiling and subjectivities, to territorial disputes related to northern and smaller school board challenges related to school closures. It is argued that the fundamental issue is not the dilemma related to redistribution and recognition rights, but the tensions strategically created through the manipulation of economic and moral orderings and consequential fragmentations of space and social justice.
