The Flâneur and Education Research A Metaphor for Knowing, Being Ethical and New Data Production By: Alexandra Lasczik Cutcher Publisher: Palgrave Pivot Print ISBN: 9783319728377, 3319728377 eText ISBN: 9783319728384, 3319728385 Copyright year: 2018 Format: PDF Available from $ 54.99 USD SKU: 9783319728384 This book creatively and critically explores the figure of the flâneur and its place within educational scholarship. The flâneur is used as a generative metaphor and a prompt for engaging the unknown through embodied engagement, the politics of space, mindful walking and ritual. The chapters in this collection explore sensorial qualities of place and place-making, urban spaces and places, walking as relational practice, walking as ritual, thinking photographically, the creative and narrative qualities of flâneurial walking, and issues of power, gender, and class in research practices. In doing so, the editors and contributors examine how flâneurial walking can be viewed as a creative, relational, place-making practice. Engaging the flâneur as an influential and recurring historical figure allows and expands upon generative ways of thinking about educational inquiry. Furthermore, attending to the flâneur provides a way of provoking researchers to recognize and consider salient political issues that impact educational access and equity.
