| Details | The world is embattled by crises of division. The need to understand other people and their cultures is becoming ever more imperative. Various responses have been implemented already at the levels of national and local governments, regions, schools etc. but this study starts from the question of whether it is even possible for us to understand others. Addressing the limits of people’s ability to understand the hard-to-accept other, it draws on Shiobara’s concept of the transboundary imagination and Ghassan Hage’s ideas concerning multiple realities to consider, from an educational perspective, how these crises of division may be tackled. |
