Between the local and the global : The tension of cultivating a bi-directional ecocritical awareness in education (Journal Article) Philadelphia, PA :Taylor & Francis Group ,2023 341-350p. The Journal of Environmental Education Volume 54: Numbers 4-6, 2023 ***______{For Hard Copy, Please visit Library.}________*** Abstract: Although numerous approaches to cultivating an ecocritical awareness in students exist, much scholarly dialog has revolved around ecojustice education and ecopedagogy. Whereas the former seeks to cultivate a local ecocritical awareness in students, the latter advocates for a globalized “planetary citizenship.” While both cultivate an ecocritical awareness, they focus this awareness in different directions: the local and the global. This tension is illustrated by the 2004 disagreement between Gadotti and Bowers. In this article, I use this disagreement as a starting place to examine this tension and challenge the perceived opposition between cultivating a local and a planetary ecojustice awareness. ecojustice education| ecopedagogy| Bowers| Gadotti| ecojustice ethics https://doi.org/10.1080/00958964.2023.2238260 PER 0 0 0 0 RIEBPL RIEBPL 2024-04-09 0 2024-04-09 07:12:36 2024-04-09 PER 45610 45609
