Postdigital (Re)Imaginations
Description
This edited volume presents the latest achievements of postdigital scholarship in the field of future studies. Showing that current policy frameworks are dominated by capitalist imaginaries, the book insists on the development of radically different futures. This task is approached in five different ways. The book begins with an overview of the many ways to approach postdigital imaginations as emancipatory practices, followed by some urgent reimaginations of older ideas. It moves on to critiques of current practices, policies, and imaginaries, and develops postdigital research methods for the development of emancipatory educational imaginaries. Showcasing some recent interventions in educational politics, policy, and practice, it links presented work on postdigital imaginations with recent postdigital inquiry related to the geopolitics of postdigital educational development. This book is suited for educators, policy-makers, and any researcher fascinated by the unbounding of education from capitalist imaginaries and reframing it within an emancipatory future.
