Politics and Sociology Education A Relational Realist Vision for Education Policy and Practice Basem Adi ( author ) Read Online Download Printed Editions This volume argues that relational realism can help us to make better educational policy that is more effective in practice. Basem Adi draws on critical realism to thoroughly re-examine fundamental assumptions about how government policymaking works, developing an ontological basis from which to examine existing government approaches and imagine an alternative approach based on a relational realist-informed critical pedagogy. Adi casts familiar issues in a new light by drawing on a less familiar theoretical and meta-theoretical tradition, offering a critique that can be productively engaged with by many educational organizations to tackle the issues they face. A Relational Realist Vision for Education Policy and Practice will be of great interest to academics of sociology, critical realism, sociological theory and education, as well as policymakers and educators seeking a theoretical perspective on their work. Endorsements Metrics Resources Contents Contributors Endorsements The book introduces an interesting and relevant restructuring of educational policy and practice. The central idea, about relational realism being able to underpin a more adequate approach to educational policy and practice, is interesting, promising, and relatively novel. This book successfully demonstrates that a reconsideration of fundamental assumptions, and re-orientation toward a relational realist model, could be productive for many educational organizations and for many issues that educators face.

A Summary of the Argument Presented (pp. 143–154) Basem Adi Contributors Basem Adi ( author ) https://orcid.org/0009-0009-4597-147X I am a sociologist interested in the intersection between critical pedagogy and critical realism as a general sociological approach. Specifically, I am interested in the 'relational' turn in critical realism as an epistemic approach that views relations as the first ontological principle when observing and explaining social reality. In the context of knowing and learning, I seek to continuously investigate the implications of the 'relational' turn to think of new ways to relate freedom and directive authority.
