Interculturality, Criticality and Reflexivity in Teacher Education
Preparing teachers to work with and for diversity in their classrooms and beyond is an objective that seems to be globally accepted in pre-service and in-service teacher education. However, what diversity means, what it entails and how to engage with diverse individuals in educational contexts can take on multiple shapes in different parts of the world. This Element suggests that the multifaceted and polysemic notion of interculturality could be useful to unthink and rethink (ad infinitum) working with diverse people in education. The Element surveys the different meanings and ideologies attached to the notion, using a multilingual perspective to do so. Recent research published internationally on the topic and its companions such as multicultural is also reviewed. The main addition to the field is a critical and reflexive perspective which is proposed for teacher educators, (students) teachers and researchers. The proposal draws from Dervin's most up-to-date theoretical and pedagogical work.

sidottu
Offering a unique reading experience, this book examines the epistemologies of interculturality and explores potential routes to review and revisit the notion anew.Grounded in different sociocultural, economic and political perspectives around the world, interculturality in education and research bears a paradoxical attribute of 'contradictions' and 'inconsistencies', making it a polysemous and flexible notion that has no definitive diagnosis and requires constant unthinking and rethinking. The author provides a toolbox of 'out-of-box ideas' in the form of fragmental yet standalone writings and follow-up questions concerning stereotypes about the very notion of interculturality and conceptual and methodological flaws in the way it is used. Readers are encouraged to critically reflect about interculturality as it stands today in global research and education. In identifying the paradoxes of interculturality and proposing alternative directions, the book stimulates a diversity of thoughts about the notion that goes beyond the 'West'. The book will be an essential reading for scholars, students and educators interested in education philosophy, applied linguistics and the broad field of intercultural communication education.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.Funded by University of Helsinki

Communicating around Interculturality in Research and Education
This book does not instruct the reader how to communicate interculturally but supports them in reflecting on how they can (re-)negotiate and (re-)construct knowledge(s), ideologies and relations around the notion of interculturality. Anchored in the author’s original and thought-provoking perspectives on interculturality, this interdisciplinary and global-minded book explores how communicating around the notion cannot do away with ideologisms, issues of language and translation or the problematization of voice and silence in research and education. Written in an original and stimulating way, relying on different writing genres and styles to ‘mimic’ the dynamism and flexibility of the very notion under review, the author urges us to (un-)voice, scrutinize, nurture and galvanize our ways of dealing with interculturality alone and together with others in academia. The very specific focus of the book, communicating around interculturality (instead of ‘doing’ interculturality), represents a fresh and important move for observing, analyzing, speaking of and contributing to today's complex and divided world. The title is aimed at researchers, students and educators interested in examining and enriching their own takes on interculturality, from a more reflexive and interactive perspective.

Based on the author’s 25 years of experience in researching and teaching interculturality, Intercultural Self-Defence: A Resource Book for Students, Teachers and Researchers is a compelling exploration of the subtle forces that shape Intercultural Communication Education and Research (ICER).The Resource Book delves into the adversaries lurking within ICER - indoctrination, intellectual inertia and linguistic indifference - and unveils how they can stifle genuine understanding and growth. Each chapter acts as a critical lens, scrutinising the boundaries between education and indoctrination, the stagnation of thought and the perils of linguistic complacency. The author illustrates the impact of these forces on interculturality and the ethical implications they carry. The book contains a series of activities designed to encourage creative self-reflection and fosters a deeper understanding of the interplay between language, power and interculturality. But it is more than a resource: It is a manifesto for continuous learning, active engagement and the pursuit of a more inclusive and dynamic field of intercultural communication education and scholarship.Advocating a vigilant and self-reflexive approach, the book will serve as a critical guide for students, teachers and researchers specialising in intercultural research and education to navigate the complexities of interculturality.

This book challenges the silence surrounding money, revealing its profound influences on personal and social identities and power dynamics in intercultural contexts.In this inimitable book, Fred Dervin continues to explore the notion of interculturality by offering a novel and critical exploration of the often-overlooked role of money, especially within the broad field of Intercultural Communication Education and Research (ICER). Adopting a robust interdisciplinary lens and drawing on concrete examples, the author combines, for example, financial education, literature, philosophy and sociology to critique the economic and moral dimensions of global interactions in today's confused and confusing world. From examining the commodification of intercultural relations to proposing shared responsibility and ethical reasoning, Money and Interculturality: A Theory provides a fresh perspective on how money shapes and often distorts interculturality. Based on a unique integration of contemporary, historical and literary insights, Dervin questions and deepens our understanding of interculturality while equipping readers with new vocabulary and frameworks to address the harsh realities of global, unpredictable and power-laden communication.This somewhat provocative book represents an essential reference for educators, practitioners, researchers and students seeking to investigate the connections between money and interculturality.

Provocative, interdisciplinary, and daringly critical, AI for Critical Interculturality doesn’t spoon-feed ready-made answers but rather inspires readers to think, question and interrogate interculturality alongside AI. In a world where AI is often feared as a threat to human intelligence and creativity, the book flips the script by positioning AI as a valuable partner in the study of interculturality as both a scientific and educational notion. How could AI help us dismantle biases, interrogate knowledge production/dissemination and foster deeper self-reflexivity in the broad field of Intercultural Communication Education and Research? What happens when we treat AI not as a passive tool but as an active interlocutor – one that mirrors our ideological blind spots and pushes us toward sharper criticality and reflexivity? Through rich theoretical and conceptual insights, real-world cases and interactive activities, this book equips readers to unmask ideologies in AI-generated knowledge about interculturality; leverage AI as a mirror to expose and confront personal and systemic biases; consider some language stratagems to disrupt linguistic norms in human-AI dialogue. More importantly, the author asks us to forge an ethical and non-utilitarian partnership with AI. This boundary-shattering work invites students, educators and researchers of interculturality to envision and co-create the future of intercultural studies.

Interculturality in Flux is an audacious and self-reflexive interrogation of intercultural scholarship and education. Redefining intellectual retrospection as a process of fundamental critique, Fred Dervin turns his analytical lens inwards, exposing the contradictions, weaknesses and evolving tensions within his own work. At its core, this book addresses the tension between polished academic language and the uncomfortable truths beneath. The author reveals how power imbalances are often obscured by self-complacency, diplomacy and/or theoretical sophistication in intercultural research and education. Through its dynamic, non-linear structure, this book invites readers to engage not just with ideas, but also with the lived complexities behind their production and dissemination. Spanning a decade of scholarship, it revisits and scrutinises key themes such as Eurocentrism, neoliberal commodification and methodological rigidity. Rejecting static knowledge, the author frames interculturality instead as an ever-shifting terrain of ideological and linguistic negotiation. Rather than offering a mere retrospective, this work demands that scholars interrogate their own intellectual trajectories, confront the limitations of dominant paradigms and embrace the messy and often contradictory realities of intercultural communication, education and research. With its distinctive features of reflexivity, epistemic humility and willingness to challenge established norms, this book will appeal to educators, students and researchers alike.

Myth as Disorientation for Critical Intercultural Pedagogy
This book presents a game-changing approach to critical intercultural pedagogy by reclaiming myth as a stimulating tool for deliberate and productive disorientation. Moving beyond archaic relics or simple deconstruction, the author argues that myths, from the Finnish Kalevala to student-created (digital) narratives, are dynamic forces for both epistemic resistance and renaissance today. Readers will discover how myths can disrupt reductive binaries, challenge neoliberal agendas and give space to marginalised epistemologies. Venturing from canonical texts to classroom experiments in co-creation, this book offers an original framework that aims to replace the search for ‘cultural truths’ or sterile and Western-centric debates between ‘essentialists’ and ‘non-essentialists’ with a practice of curious humility. Urgently relevant, Myth as Disorientation for Critical Intercultural Pedagogy is indispensable reading for students, educators and scholars seeking to transform intercultural perspectives through creative, reflexive and ethically grounded praxis.

This book explores the decades-long use of the notion of interculturality in education and other fields, arguing that it is now time to move beyond certain assumptions towards a richer and more realistic understanding of the ‘intercultural’. Many concepts such as culture, identity and intercultural competence are discussed and revised. Myths about interculturality are also unpacked and dispelled. Written by one of the leading scholars in the field, this book proposes a very useful framework to address theoretical and methodological issues related to interculturality. This somewhat provocative book will be of interest to anyone who wrestles with this knotty but central notion of our times.
