Education Under Siege by Neoliberalism and Neoconservatism
Neoliberal and neoconservative educational politics have significantly been damaging education all over the World. Public education is regarded as old fashioned, private schools and a variety of types of education have been presented as an ideal model, schools and the students are now in a more competitive relationship, public education has been losing its status as a social right as a result of relationships with the market, and the state is rapidly losing its social character in the face of these developments. It leads us to rethink education given problems such as the education becoming less democratic, less secular and losing its scientific character; becoming more conservative and capital oriented and becoming less concerned with- in fact- detrimental to- issues of equality and critique. In rethinking education, the critical education movement takes an important role in creating new horizons and strategies against the global attack of the capital.
The International Conference on Critical Education, which
was held in Athens for first meetings, provides a base for the academics,
teachers and intellectuals who are interested in the subject to come together
in order to overcome obstacles for public education. Therefore, in the age
where education is under siege by neoliberalism and neoconservatism, we invite
you to the IIIrd International Conference on Critical Education to reflect on
the theory and practice of critical education and to contribute to the field.
