Roger Pizarro Milian; David Zarifa – Canadian Journal of Higher Education, 2023
It is generally accepted that Canadian universities are less stratified than their southern neighbours, a hypothesis popularized in the mid-2000s and verified by subsequent comparative empirical research.

Shifrer, Dara; Appleton, C. J. – Youth & Society, 2024

A national system of education in modern nation-states is usually geared towards nation-building and schools play a significant role in grooming children as future citizens. While the dominant and powerful usually emerge as the 'ideal citizen' in the national imagination, the marginalized are constructed as the 'other', vilified, and stigmatised.…

Papadopoulou, Marianna; Sidorenko, Ewa – British Educational Research Journal, 2022
This study discusses some of the paradoxes found in the rhetoric of participatory research. Research-with-children views them as competent and agentic and as social actors, as citizens with opinions that must be listened to and given due weight. This image of the child as a social actor fails to acknowledge the structural, contextual and…

Cushion, Christopher J.; Griffiths, Mark; Armour, Kathleen – Sport, Education and Society, 2019

A directional application of upstanding…
