1 a Philosophical Analysis of STEM Education Dissertation Presented In
A Philosophical Analysis of STEM Education Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Jamie Eric Teeple Graduate Program in Educational Studies The Ohio State University 2018 Dissertation Committee Bryan R. Warnick, Advisor Michael J. Glassman Bruce A. Kimball 1 Copyrighted by Jamie Eric Teeple 2018 2 Abstract In this dissertation, I critique STEM education as the educational apotheosis of neoliberal governmentality and reconceptualize it for an egalitarian democracy. Part and parcel of this analysis is considering Wendy Brown’s (2015) contention that the contemporary subject is interpolated by the prevailing norms of neoliberalism as a governing form of political rationality and thus expresses itself not as a political subject, or “homo politicus”, but as a self-investing and economized subject, or “homo oeconomicus”. I hypothesize that students as emergent homo oeconomicus seek out STEM education as the best means for survival within a technocratic marketplace. In this sense, STEM literacy is rendered the paradigmatic form of symbolic capital within the capitalist state. The thrust of my critical response to this milieu figures left-libertarian or social-anarchist thought as the diametrically opposed and thus apposite ideological rejoinder to the right- authoritarian status quo, not only for political activism writ large, but also for educational reform proposals and even the preparation of preservice teachers. In the end, my research is an attempt to explore how students’ narratives can assist critical educators with leveraging pedagogy into a potent means for cultivating within educational systems the social imaginaries and political subjects needed to eschew the aims of a right- authoritarian status quo and embrace the aims of an egalitarian, left-libertarian society-to- be. -
Being and Becoming Political in the Classroom
Andreas Petrik Being and becoming political in the classroom The "foundation of a village-community"-simulation as genetic teaching and research setting The democracy and ideology gap in civic education When reflecting on the future of civic education and its best practices we should keep in mind the most salient similarity between teaching and politics: the gap between programs and practice. This is why we can talk about an important "rejuvenation" of this subject both in the United States and in Germany by the recent empirical turn. Instead of accepting the evidence that many students consider civic education as boring and see no learning effect, we started to examine by surveys and assessments, how civics is being taught and how it might be best taught, including to find explications and solutions for the youthful indifference toward institutional politics (e.g., Niemi & Niemi, 2007, 34- 35). So I will start with real classroom practice to unfold my perspective on the problems and challenges of present teaching and develop theoretical and practical didactical answers. Though my own best practice research refers to German experience, I will link my approach to the recent American didactic discussion to outline common future tasks. As I didn't get a chance yet to do research in American classes, I will inductively develop my didactic starting point using a classroom scene with a 11th or 12th grader published by Nancy and Richard Niemi (2007, 44-45). I have chosen it because the authors see it as typical and we can find here in a nutshell the core of two outstanding teaching and learning problems to be solved both in the U.S. -
The Political Compass and Why Libertarianism Is Not Right-Wing
The Political Compass and Why Libertarianism is not Right-Wing J C Lester Abstract The political distinction between left and right remains ideologically muddled. This was not always so, but an immediate return to the pristine usage is impractical. Putting a theory of social liberty to one side, this essay defends the interpretation of left-wing as personal-choice and right-wing as property-choice. This allows an axis that is north/choice (or state-free) and south/control (or state-ruled). This Political Compass clarifies matters without being tendentious or too complicated. It shows that what is called ‘libertarianism’ is north-wing. A quiz gives the reader’s Political Compass reading. Pristine clarity and modern confusion The modern political left/right division is too crude to accommodate many important political positions in a way that makes any sense. Libertarianism (or extreme classical liberalism) is sometimes placed, often implicitly or vaguely, somewhere on the extreme right. But can we say whether it ought to be to the right or left of other „right-wing‟ ideologies? How are we to indicate the extreme tolerance of personal choice (as regards drug use and consenting sexual practices, for instance) that libertarianism entails but which is not normally thought of as being right-wing? Samuel Brittan sees clearly the confusion in the modern left and right (though assuming a libertarian view of liberty): The dilemma of the [classical] liberal is that while Conservatives now use the language of individual freedom, they apply this only—if at all—to domestic economic questions. They are the less libertarian of the two parties—despite individual exceptions—on all matters of personal and social conduct, and are much the more hawk-like in their attitude to „foreign affairs‟. -

Running Head: LIBERTARIAN SOCIALISM: the FUTURE of AMERICA 1
Running head: LIBERTARIAN SOCIALISM: THE FUTURE OF AMERICA 1 Libertarian Socialism: The Future Of America Kenneth Rhee Diablo Valley College LIBERTARIAN SOCIALISM: THE FUTURE OF AMERICA 2 Abstract In the book, Government In The Future, Noam Chomsky says that currently the government of the United States seems like that of a state capitalism. At first, the United States pursued the classical liberalistic government. As time passed, US government lost its directions, and ended up as state capitalism. However, Chomsky urges that the U.S. government should be changed toward libertarian socialism. After World War II, the United States has become the most powerful country in the world, but capitalists also have gained power. Chomsky warned this to the public in the United States, and suggests libertarian socialism as the right idea for the future of America. This paper reflects research using various books and articles regarding the pros and cons of four different political theories, as well as research on the result of political compass and its application in explaining the reasons for Chomsky’s suggestion. LIBERTARIAN SOCIALISM: THE FUTURE OF AMERICA 3 Introduction According to the result of political compass test, my political personality is libertarian socialism (The Political Compass, 2015). Libertarian socialism is a combination of anarchism and socialism. When it comes to anarchism, since capitalism's early beginnings in Europe, and it's authoritarian trend of wage-slavery for the majority of people by elite capitalists, there was a libertarian movement in response to capitalism known as "Socialism". In every case, the socialist movement has been divided into authoritarian and libertarian. -
