Conditional autonomy and responsible Action: A response to Yusef Waghid and Martin Hall
No full textYusef Waghid in his response to Martin Hall argues that Martin Hall offers a better
way of making sense of some of the conceptual and pragmatic links between academic freedom and institutional autonomy. Nevertheless Waghid critiques Hall's uncritical treatment of prominent theoretical positions for his claims, which Waghid thinks leaves some of Hall's arguments truncated. This response finds Hall's option for conditional autonomy and Waghid's option for responsible action both problematic. South African Journal of Higher Education Vol. 20 (3) 2006: 383-38
Ethical Dimensions of Muslim Education by Nuraan Davids and Yusef Waghid
Full text linkPendidikan Islam, baru-baru ini, banyak menyedot perhatian karena kontroversi yang tengah ramai melingkarinya, yaitu: apakah fenomena kekerasan, ekstremisme, dan ujaran kebencian yang menimpa sebagian kelompok orang-orang Muslim merupakan produk dari pendidikan Islam atau apakah mereka terasing dari semangat etika pendidikan Islam yang sebenarnya? Dalam konteks ini, buku yang bertajuk Ethical Dimensions of Muslim Education yang ditulis oleh Nuraan Davids dan Yusef Waghid sedikit banyak memiliki peran penting untuk menghilangkan kebimbangan dan kebingungan dalam mengurai ‘benang kusut’ seputar isu-isu yang berkaitan dan berhubungan dengan pendidikan Islam, karena analisis yang dibentangkan dalam buku ini sarat dengan konsep-konsep yang sengaja dipungut dari teks-teks Islam dalam kaitannya dengan pendidikan dan etika, yang sekurang-kurangnya menunjukkan wawasan dan pengetahuan kedua penulisnya
Cosmopolitanism in relation to the self and the other: from Michel Foucault to Stanley Cavell
No full textEducators, not to mention philosophers of education, find themselves in a difficult position nowadays. They are confronted with problems such as which kind of values one would want citizens to embrace, or to what extent social practices of a particular group may differ from what is generally held. In this essay, Paul Smeyers and Yusef Waghid focus on postmodern critiques, in particular on the position of Michel Foucault as it is relevant for the debate on cosmopolitanism. The authors argue that Foucault’s analysis of the self in relation to the other is somewhat contentious, as it seems to invoke an independent ethical self other than a social self. Smeyers andWaghid claim that amore nuanced position regarding this relation can be found in the work of Stanley Cavell. They conclude that encounters with the other should not be seen as a new kind of universalism or Foucauldian subjectivism, but rather as an opening that creates opportunities both for attachment and detachments, that is, for acknowledgment and avoidance.status: Publishe
